Can you link an NTFS junction point to a directory on a Network Attached Storage?
- by Zachary Burt
I'm using Windows, and I want to use Dropbox to back up a folder outside my Dropbox directory. So I want to create a junction point from my target directory to my Dropbox folder. Accoding to the Wikipedia article on NTFS junction points, which the Dropbox answer links to:
"Junction points can only link to directories on a local volume; junction points to remote shares are unsupported."
I am looking to link to a directory on networked attached storage, which would not be a local volume, I believe. What should I do?
