I've tried this on 2 different systems, and on both systems ln -s
fails
in the same way.
Here's the steps
mkdir Test
cd Test
>afile
cd ..
ln -s Test/afile Test/afile2
ls -l Test
This is the output:
/bin/ls: cannot access Test/afile2: No such file or directory

l?????????? ? ? ? ? ? afile2
I'm not sure, but maybe this is what -r is for:
$ mkdir Test
$ > Test/afile
$ ln -sr Test/afile Test/afile2
$ ls -l Test/
total 0
