How to recover after deleting the symbolic link libc.so.6?

Question

In our server the symbolic link to libc.so.6 has been deleted. Now none of the binaries in the system work. To fix this, I tried:

/bin/ln -s /li

Note, for 64 bit:

LD_PRELOAD=libc-2.13.so ln -s libc-2.13.so libc.so.6

This worked great for me

If you are not in that directory of course it will be something like:
LD_PRELOAD=/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc-2.13.so ln -s /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc-2.13.so /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6
