From my investigations, Windows doesn't seem to have symbolic links.
The "shortcuts" that you see on a Windows desktop doesn't resolve at the CreateFile
level (operating system call), so it is only handled by Explorer (which is an application, not
the operating system).  I have not been able to find a CIFS method
of creating a symbolic link (and I have looked repeatedly).

Subject: symbolic links

My company tried to save some money by getting a Netapp without the NFS license
because we will not be using it with Unix.  The problem is we need to use a few
symbolic links.  It seems that the only way to create them is via a NFS mount.
Does anyone know a way around this?

Thanks,
