Hi, I have not been able to find an explanation why: 1. hard links are not allowed for directories, and 2. soft links to directories are not automatically removed if the target is deleted. The link to the directory remains and is obviously useless so why doesn't 'nix delete them too?
Many thanks to anybody who can tell me why or point me to unix documentation explaining why - it is very elusive to find, methinks. David -- ubuntu-au mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-au
