Comments on: PHP 5.3 symlink() in Windows Vista and Server 2008 http://josh.mainelan.net/2009/06/php-5-3-symlink-in-windows/ Random nonsense from the mind of Narkaleptic.

For example, with Zend Studio for Eclipse, you can right-click and say "run as administrator". Obviously you only want to do this if you're careful... and ALWAYS... only do this on a testing environment with code you're familiar with. Typically, I have to use symlink very sparingly... and on windows... I only do this as part of the local development process prior to uploading it to my staging server.

I used it to make one and was unable to fopen any files from behind the system link, but if_file() returned true.
