Hi,
It seems that NTFS-3G is currently hardcoded to create only Interix
symlinks. Today, however, Interix is obsolete, and people are using
WSL instead, which has its own different kind of symlink. Is it
anywhere on the roadmap to read and (optionally) create WSL symlinks
instead of Interix symlinks, like what Cygwin does now?
I do not use WSL, and I am short of information about those
symlinks. Can you please create a few such symlinks and
post their reparse data :
- two symlinks to regular files, one to an absolute target
and one to a relative target (with and without a leading /)
- two symlinks to directories (absolute and relative targets).
- for each of them post the output of :
getfattr -h -e hex -n system.ntfs_reparse_data the-symlink
I might need more information at a later stage.
Also, I was wondering, is there any roadmap so far for another release
of NTFS-3G?
A new advanced release is on the way. Not sure whether
your requested feature can be integrated, depends on its complexity.
I have no information about a version supported by Tuxera.

Best,
Kevin
