Chapter 5. Symbolic links
Figure 5-4. We are permitted to access main.html
Because symbolic links might be used to circumvent access controls in the web
server there is a modified version of this option with the rather unwieldy name
SymLinksIfOwnerMatch. This instructs the web server to follow the symbolic link if
and only if the symbolic link’s owner (typically the user who created it) and the
target’s owner match.
