Hello,

The option FollowSymLinks is enabled by default on DirectAdmin servers. The main requirement for this to work an owner of a symlink and a target file/directory should match. In other words, you can not use symlinks to cross-link content between different users.

I am asking coz i got this on error logs:


AH00670: Options FollowSymLinks and SymLinksIfOwnerMatch are both off, so the RewriteRule directive is also forbidden due to its similar ability to circumvent directory restrictions

Do you have more than one /home for your files?

The default /home has these:

<Directory /home>
        AllowOverride All
        Options -MultiViews -Indexes +FollowSymLinks +IncludesNoExec +Includes
        AllowMethods GET HEAD POST
</Directory>
