accessing nfs symbolic link (absolute path) from cygwin/windows

[andredz]

Is there away to access some NFS symlink files that are set using absolute paths from Windows?
I'm able to access symlink files is there are set using relative paths.


Assume on Linux (mylinux):
/usr/local/file.c
ln -s /usr/local/file.c fileX1.c (absolute path)
ln -s file.c fileX2.c (relative path)

Assume samba has been set up, so I can open these files on Windows:
\\mylinux\usr\local\file.c
\\mylinux\usr\local\fileX2.c

But not:
\\mylinux\usr\local\fileX1.c

I tried to mount (on Cygwin):
mount "//mylinux" "/"

So I can browse
/usr/local/*

but still can't open
/usr/local/fileX1.c


Is there away to make it work?
Or it's just impossible due to file system differences.


Thank you,

@andredz
Could you please tell me the current directories in both the cases? i.e. when you create the link..
