question about cygwin softlinks and unix softlinks

[Warren L Dodge]

I am operating in a file server environment where the file server can be
accessed by both linux and windows.

I make a tree on this file server in linux which includes some soft links.

I then accessed this same tree via the windows system using cygwin. 

What I found is that the unix soft links are sort of working. BASH can see
them for file completion, but I can't delete them or cd into the directory
that they point to.


I am not sure how this should work. It would be real nice if the unix soft
links would work just like the cygwin soft links.
