Topic: hard link to directories

[tranbert]

has anyone tried to make a hard link to a dir ?


# ln /source /dest
ln: /source: hard link not allowed for directory

Works for symbolic links, but not for hard.

ln -d /source /dest
ln: create hard link /dest/source' to /source': Operation not permitted

Try option -s (creates a symbolic link).

ln -s
