Hi List,

I am running 1.8 on a uClinux host and would like to have access to the syslog
file /var/log/messages through my web interface. Since the system has only a
ROMFS I did a symbolic link of messages in my RAM disk via

ln -s /var/log/messages /home/httpd/log.txt

and generated the romfs image with this link. Now fnord will see log.txt alright
but it substitutes the link http://server/log.txt with
http://server/var/log/messages which it cannot find. My root dir is /home/httpd/
and of course /home/httpd/var/log/messages does not exist...

My question now is: How do I symlink correctly do achieve what I want? Thank you
for your kind help!
