Thanks for the additional information. It sounds like you are running into the issue on the Linux side of things, where you are locating files on a cifs mount hosted natively by Windows. Remember, Windows has very poor symlink support, and cifs is accurately reporting that it cannot create a symlink because the underlying file system on the native Windows side can't represent symlinks. This is not a bug in ln, but a fundamental limitation of your choice of file system. -- Eric Blake [email protected] +1-801-349-2682 Libvirt virtualization library http://libvirt.org
