    Oops, sorry; to actually answer your question, I don't know.

    I would think whatever it is, it'd be similar to the services
    for unix stuff.

    One nice thing about Vista though.. it has real, actual symbolic links.

    You can point the symlinks at UNC paths. Even CD into them from DOS,
    and have your current directory be a file server via a UNC path.

    To make eg. a directory symlink in Vista from DOS:

        MKLINK /D \foo \\some\server\path

    This is really useful for the film industry.. it means we can /finally/
    use regular pathnames, and redirect paths to different servers.
    I just verified it today on Business Edition.

    Working symlinks in windows? Hell hath frozen over.
