How do I create a unix-like hardlink on NTFS?
January 8, 2000
A. Hard links are pointers to files and are indistinguishable from theoriginal directory entry. Any changes to a file are effective regardless of thename used to refer to the file (the original name or the link name). Hard linkscannot span file systems or drives and are not currently supported within NFSmounts or from NTFS to the mount.
The Server Resource Kit Contains ln.exe in the POSIX subdir. ln.exe is _not_listed in the "Alphabetical List of Utilities".
POSIX.wri contains some notes on it, but the "error" syntax isdifferent than the syntax listed in POSIX.wri. POSIX.wri indicates an -s arg forsymlinks too which seem to not work. Also contrary to POSIX.wri use backslash inpaths.
