How do I create a Symlink in Linux?
Last updated: March 28, 2011
To create a symlink in linux first make sure you are in the directory you want the link to appear so for example say you want the link in /etc:
cd /etc
Then create the link:
ln -s /path/to/source sym_link_name
This will create the symlink in etc:
/etc/sym_link_name
