how to rename a link

[vickey_20]

I created a symlink to a directory. Now how to rename the symlink to something else pointing to the same directory.

[lomcevak]

With the 'mv' command:

mv oldsymlink newsymlink

I tried a cp on the symlink but it didn't work. I ll give mv a try . Thanks for replying dude

got the solution and it cleared my concepts too
cmd: cp linkname to newlink
note: when you type the linkname and press tab incase it's a dir link it will be appended with '/' where you will get a error. To rename a dir symlink simply remove the / form the end.
