Alternatively, you can use chmod() to change the file attributes to
allow reading/writing of the file. Might be faster than the ftp
functions.
Hard links point to the data (ie: they're just a normal file). When
all the hard links to the data are gone, then the data is deleted.
They also cannot cross volumes.
Symlinks point to a file (which points to the data). The effect being,
if you delete the symlink, the original file is still there. They can
cross volumes as they just have a file path they point to.
Apache can be setup to follow, not follow, and change the owner id of
symlinks. Since you said symlinks are apparently working, I don't
think it matters which you choose in this case.
