Hint is backwards ...
Authored by: Frederico on Aug 23, '03 02:30:04PM

I agree with the first reply; the original syntax is backwards.

For the second reply, indeed, try the command yourself.

it has always been:

link (symbolically) [to this real file/folder] [from this symbolic location/name]

Thus, e.g.:

ln -s /Volumes/OtherDisk/OtherDirectory/TargetDirectory /Volumes/OriginalDisk/OriginalDirectory/NameOfActualSymbolicLinkThatUsuallyMatchesTargetDirectory
