I have a Server 2008 VM (Parallels 9), and I share a folder from OSX via a mapped network drive "T:
".
I am trying to make a symlink from one folder on T:
to another folder on the same drive, like so:
T:\> mklink /d foo bar
After working out all the permissions issues, a la this question, I have discovered that Windows doesn't like the filesystem (PrlSF
).
Is there a way to create a Windows-recognized symlink there?
I have tried
- making the symlink in OSX (Explorer calls it a "File," and it plays all sorts of merry havoc with the
dir
list.) mklink /d C:\foo bar
, which makes a link, but file permissions are impossible to set.mklink /d foo C:\bar
, which gives the same error:The device does not support symbolic links.
T:
is a mapping to\\psf\share
, which is a "network drive" created by Parallels of a folder in OSX.
