I was wondering if someone could explain this too me. What is the difference when trying to create hard links on a local drive vs. a remote auto mounted drive? In either case the links are being made to files on the same physical disk. However you cant actually create hard links unless it is recognized as a local drive. e.g. If you ssh into the remote machine, create the links, then exit, everything is fine.
