You cannot have hard-links to files in different directories (if I
recall correctly) in AFS, because they are considered to be different
filesystems (or something like that). I believe that's what he's
referring to. Fortunately, hard-links are rare these days, as was
said, as symlinks usually work just as well, so this is not often a
problem.
