Something strange is happening with my symbolic directory links on my SS1
running the new recently installed SunOS 4.1. When I cd to a directory
that is a symbolic link to another directory and then back out of it (cd
..) I'm in the other directory tree.
$cd /u1/guest
$pwd
/u1/guest
$rm dir
rm: dir: No such file or directory
$ln -s /usr/test/dir dir
$ls -al dir
lrwxrwxrwx 1 guest 23 Jun 7 10:36 dir -> /usr/test/dir
$cd dir
$pwd
/u1/guest/dir
$cd ..
$pwd
/usr/test
BTW: /u1/guest is not a symbolic link. Is this what is supposed to
happen?
