I've never used Windows Vista, so the following is my experience on
Windows XP, which probably also applies to Windows Vista.
On Windows XP, if you try to access some shared files/directories from a
*nix machine, since Windows XP doesn't understand *nix symbolic links,
all symbolic links will simply become a copy of the original file,
nothing more. My advice is: never edit *nix symbolic links on Windows
XP.
