I need a refresher. It's been years since I had a sub domain access a directory via a symbolic link.<br />
<br />
Currently I get a 403 forbidden error.<br />
<br />
Note: It's a dedicated server and I have root...<br />
<br />
Here is the setup:<br />
<br />
domain.com/admin<br />
subdomain.domain.com<br />
<br />
There is a directory called files under domain.com that I created a symbolic link under subdomain.domain.com<br />
<br />
I can access it through SSH just fine but having trouble getting it through the browser. I am trying to avoid having to use rsync to copy the files to the multiple sub domains. Once I get it working on one then I can get it working on the 2nd, etc.<br />
<br />
Server is WHM/cPanel
