lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 16 Nov 13 11:12 /usr/lib/systemd/system/nfs-secure.service -> rpc-gssd.service

ls -lh /etc/systemd/system/ | grep multi-user.target.wants
drwxr-xr-x. 2 root root 4.0K Nov 13 11:12 multi-user.target.wants


Hi all,



following a tutorial for mounting a network drive, being asked to create a sym link due to the following error



systemctl enable nfs-securesystemctl start nfs-secure
Failed to execute operation: No such file or directory


I'm concerned that overwriting the original link will cause errors down the line with other services. Is it possible to create a sym link for nfs-secure to 2 different directories
