A flexible liner for lining the interior of a cargo container, and including a multitude of unique connecting segments spaced along edges of the liner to help secure the liner in the cargo container. Each of these connecting segments comprises a multitude of layers located one on top of another and held together over a given area. The layers of a first type of connecting segment include a respective one portion of a first liner panel, a respective one portion of a second liner panel, and first and second sections of a respective one reinforcing member. The layers of each of these connecting segments form a through opening extending through the connecting segment and spaced from the perimeter thereof. The layers of a second type of connecting segment include a respective one portion of a first liner panel, a respective one portion of a second liner panel, first and second sections of a respective one first reinforcing member, and a respective one second reinforcing member. In each of these second type of connecting segments, the fifth layer of connecting segment is captured between a pair of other layers, and is spaced from the perimeter, of the connecting segment.
