Oh, there's a limit on Solaris too. It's just bigger.

Make all the symlinks point directly to the final file.
i.e. the lower ones should look like:

        ../../../../mytestfile

as suits. Any reason these can't be hardlinks instead of symbolic links?

Sorry, but at DoD minimum speed it is impossible to speak. There is just
too much wind noise.  At that speed I am spending all my concentration
allowance on riding, and cannot afford anymore thought for words.
However, when I finish a ride and the bike is in the garage cooling down,
the single word that comes to mind is:
    BEER.
