soft and hard links in ntfs

<< < (6/7) > >>

justice:
works well on servers too for efficient web developers.  :o keep the old version compatible while moving all the files to the new location.

Hi, very interesting thread :-)
I have been wanting to move my GoogleEarth's cache out of the C: drive and this seems a way to do it (folder junction)!
Thanks

elpresi:
Hi,
to create junction points,
which is better: ntfslink or ntfs link shell extension?
Thanks

Curt:
It is a question if both of them still are being maintained.

ntsflink = NTFS Link Ext version 2.1 : development has been moved to Source Forge: http://sourceforge.net/projects/ntfslinkext Registered : 2006-03-07

I am using LSE, but I don't know how well the other one is working.

I never got it, why do people say *nix, of *u*x, or something else instead of unix?

'cause unix is a four-letter word?  ;)

I'm gonna try these linky things. I've gotten so used to Linux at home that I made a c:\usr\bin, installed a bunch of gnuwin32 utilities, and found out that their implementation of soft links via ln simply makes a windows shortcut. And a hard link makes a copy.  :huh:
