OK. That's good! Symlinks are your friend.

Now the only gotcha I have is that I can't get anything to transfer over ftp. (Maybe it needs to be in passive mode?)

Even if I try an ls, "150 Opening data connection" comes back and it just sits there until I ^C out of it.

At least it didn't do anything harmful ('cept it IS still in rw mode - yikes! [grin]).
