win2k and later have a form of sym link, the api for it is just not provided in a nice simple app like it is on nix platforms.
Yes, it's possible to create symlinks on win2k using a command line tool called 'linkd' (I've done it). However, they're extremely dangerous, because the GUI side of win2k doesn't know about them. It thinks that a symlink to a folder is a real folder, and if you delete it, you end up deleting the contents of the folder that the symlink points to. So if you use them, you need to keep your wits about you. -- Greg
