010-160 Exam - Question 52


What is true about links in a Linux file system?

Show Answer
Correct Answer: D

A symbolic link can point to a file on another file system. Unlike hard links, which must reside in the same file system as the target, symbolic links can reference files or directories located on different file systems, making them more flexible in terms of cross-file system referencing.
