reparse points and junctions over network
-
Hi, i have been playing around with NTFS reparse points and junctions. I finally found the tutorial by Mike Nordell and managed to make my application work. I can now build a junction to a path like "C:\mydirectory". My question is concerned with building junctions over the network. If i specify "\\ServerXYZ\mydirectory" as the target path, the DeviceIOControl() routine returns unsuccessfully and GetLastError() returns 4392, which means that the parameter structure must have an error. Something is wrong with the way i'm specifying the path! Is it possible to use the DeviceIOControl() routine setting a junction point that is located on another computer? Thanks in advance...

I believe junctions are only possible on the local computer and on only on ntfs. John
