[PVFS-users] soft and hard links within PVFS

I use the -h option with the tar command to replace links with the real
files. So I did that and I un-tared the new jdk.tar (link free) on
some directory on my disk. I go to the bin directory and do 'ls',
I find no links. Then I execute % java and it works ok. 

Thanks for the email.

Best Regards,
