In Linux I am able to do this:
ln -s /tmp/somedir/* /tmp/otherdir/
Which will create links to all of the files within somedir in otherdir. Is there a way to preform a wildcard operation like this in Windows 2000 using junction.exe?
junction does not accept wildcards and indeed I believe that ln does not either. What happens is that the shell expands the wildcards and then passes the resulting list of files/directories to ln. You can do the same with junction by using a for loop.
That said, you talk about linking to files. Be aware that junction does not do that. It can only be used for creating directory symbolic links.
