Is it possible to make a symbolic link of a file in other machine?

Unix & Linux Asked by crissilvaeng on November 28, 2021

I have a account in a server and I would like have a symbolic link of some files in my local machine.

How can I do this?

One Answer

It's not possible in general. However, if you happened to want to directly edit files through, e.g., a text-editor, you can use sftp:

When an ssh key has already been copied, you can edit remote files directly and without transfer by using the filename sftp://username@hostname/home/myfile.txt

At least that works in Kate.
