Talked to Pierre on IRC. Apparently I read this wrong :) This has nothing to do with disable_functions INI entry. If PHP is build on Windows version that has "symlink" support then the binary contains symlink support. If you however run the binary on WindowsXP the actual function entry is removed "at runtime". All this means is: "As of PHP5.3 symlink() and readlink() are supported on Windows2003 and above" And "As of PHP5.3 link() is supported on Windows2000 and above" -Hannes
