Dear cygwiners,
In documentation on environment variables there is a reference only for 2 choices.
http://cygwin.com/cygwin-ug-net/using-cygwinenv.html
None of which is given native NFS symlink option: windows shortcut(LNK file) or "plain files with a magic number, a path and the system attribute set" .

From Corinna Vinschen post http://sourceware.org/ml/cygwin/2012-04/msg00564.html "Cygwin understands NFS symlinks just fine, and when it creates symlinks on NFS, these are *real* symlinks, not Cygwin-type fake symlinks. "

How to make it working? Default behavior is to use "plain file" as defined in environment document :(

Thanks,
Sasha
