Hi,
I created a Samba share on my Debian system, mapped it to a drive letter on my XP Home system and did a full network install of Cygwin on the root of the mapped drive.

Has 'setup.exe' finally been updated to create .lnk file style symlinks?
Guess it has been a while since I've wandered through that code. :-)

Ah, good point.  I was actually thinking this might have been the same
thing that as someone on IRC was reporting where I thought they said
that they just saw .lnk files but I see now that this wasn't mentioned
above.  Sorry about that.

Same answer, though.  Using cygwin utiltities to create the files should
rectify the problem.

Well, the OP wrote that he used setup.exe to do "a full network install". Since setup.exe is a native windows program, would this mean that an install to a network share wouldn't work?
