LINKS!

ya got hard links, and symbolic links, where
a hard link is another file pointing to the same inode on the hdd?
a soft link is a file pointing to?

also, wouldn't a hard link have its own inode?
how can you have more than one file pointing to its own inode?

I really am having a hard time grasping this concept, any help w/ some human
(heh) explanations?
thanx again
-Sam
