Hi all,
This is driving me batty because it worked last week with a different drive but it's not working now.
I have a Cube running X Server with a Firewire drive attached to it. I want to share the Firewire drive so that I can access files from work. Now I had this running last week BEFORE I set up the Firewire drive by mounting a shared drive from my Windows XP machine and then doing a symlink in /Library/WebServer/Documents as "Shared" to that mounted XP drive. It worked perfectly using the XP shareware app "WebDrive" since XP won't work "out of the box". Now that I moved the shared drive from XP to X I can't do the symlink and see the drive from work.
Here's what I do:
In /Library/WebServer/Documents I type:
ln -s /Volumes/Neo Neo
I did this exact same thing when I had the XP drive mounted as "Shared"; I did ln -s /Volumes/Shared Shared and I was able to see the drive from work with no effort.
The /manual symlink works fine, I can even mount it from work. The permissions shouldn't be an issue, should it? /Volumes is root:wheel just like httpd, although the drive itself is starman:staff. I changed the owner/group of the drive and it still didn't work. I'm getting a 404 in PROPFIND for "Neo", but it works fine for "manual". Why a 404 error and not 403? I made sure that it's set as a mount point in Workgroup Manger and that Everyone has read/write on it. Any ideas?
UPDATE: I CAN see and mount subdirectories INSIDE /Neo, but why not /Neo itself?
Mike
