I am trying to set up gcc and I am running into space limitations in the /var/pkg directory and I heard that there is a way to symbolically link this directory to another with more space so that the gcc install can work.  Please give me an example of how I can "symbolically link" two directories for this reason.

Need an example for how to link two directories in Solaris

Unix is a multitasking, multi-user computer operating system originally developed in 1969 at Bell Labs. Today, it is a modern OS with many commercial flavors and licensees, including FreeBSD, Hewlett-Packard’s UX, IBM AIX and Apple Mac OS-X. Apart from its command-line interface, most UNIX variations support the standardized X Window System for GUIs, with the exception of the Mac OS, which uses a proprietary system.
