I want to create a symbolic link with a NAS drive.  This is were I am going to keep my picture for my website.  My computer doesn't have enough space for them.  I currently have it mapped to P, but I need a symbolic link so I can use relative paths for the html and php.

Thanks for any help you can provide

    Actually the response is valid for Windows Vista and later.

    Without special services you must use junction points

    in Windows XP.
