a question on CIFS on windows client.

Hi, this might be a little off-topic (since it involves windows)

1) I mounted a volume using cifs on windows. That volume has a symbolic link (which was created using a solaris client) Is there anyway to know from my windows client that a particular file is actually a symbolic link ??

2) The volume has a sparse file so that the logical size of the file is very big compared to its actual size on disk. However on my windows client, RightClick->Properties shows size of the file same as its size on disk. Is there anyway from my windows client to know that the file is sparse and has holes ?

Any help will be appreciated !! Thanks
