fsutil, hardlink

[Bertoldino]

hi,
either in win2000 or in winXP i've tried FSUTIL hardlink create newlink_file
source_file

but the new file seems to be only a mere copy and not an hardlink, so if i
modify the newlink_file the source_file remains the same

what's the matter? :-/

sorry for my bad english

I don't know, unless it's not NTFS. FAT32 does not support true hard links
or symlinks. If you don't get an answer here, ask in
microsoft.public.win2000.file_system.
