Hi everyone,

I'm needing to share some files between two hosting accounts and am looking at creating a few symbolic links.

In reading the man page for ln it says it creates a hard link by default or I can use --symbolic to create a symbolic link.  

What is the difference between a hard link and a symbolic link and why would I want to use one over the other?

Thanks a bunch in advance for your help.

Keith
