Unix & Linux Asked by zoom80 on December 1, 2021
if I have directory /test and create or copy subs directories and files , eg
root@box:/test/etc/config# ls
newfile1
newfile2
newfile3
newfolderz
newfoldery
how can be automatically appended to / with same path ?
root@box:/etc/config# ls
newfile1
newfile2
newfile3
newfolderz
newfofdery
existing_files1
existing_files2
existing_filesX
also if I remove it from /test will be removed /
thank you
You can use symlinks:
ln -s /etc /test
Which will make an link from /etc to /test, if you modify something in /test, it will be modified in /etc too.
You can use hardlinks for files:
ln file testfile
Like with symlinks, if you modify testfile
, file
will be modified too.
also if I remove it from /test will be removed /
be careful while removing symlinks, don't do rm -r test/* because that will delete /etc. Instead use unlink(1)
unlink /test
