My original “site” had all of the images in an “images” directory. To avoid copying all of the images to each new sub domain/directory I created an images directory for each sub directory and ran ln *.* /path/to/sub/images from within the “real” images directory.

This worked great but is it only a one shot deal? I.E. if I add another image to the main directory do I need to run ln again?

Michael, What you have created in each directory is an images directory populated with links. As you supposed, each time you add something to the "real" images directory, you have to add links to it everywhere. Here's a more efficient approach. 1) get rid of all these directories of links and 2) in each site directory, make single link to the "real" images directory (not to the images themselves). For example, cd <site_directory> ln -s <path_to_images_directory> images That's it. You won't have to worry about maintaining links to the individual files. Hope this helps. Bill
