Many servers use symbolic links (UNIX), shortcuts (Windows), or
aliases (Macintosh) to connect a folder on one part of the server’s disk
with another folder elsewhere.
For example, the public_html subdirectory of your home directory on
the server may really be a link to another part of the server entirely. In
most cases, such aliases have no effect on your ability to connect to the
appropriate folder or directory; however, if you can connect to one part
of the server but not to another, there may be an alias discrepancy.

at the FTP log.
