Subject: MS_RRP: Question on Symbolic Links

Hello Dochelp Team,

my name is Andreas Schneider, I'm a PFIF subcontractor and Samba Team member.

Section 3.1.1.11 of the MS-RRP document describes how to create, open and follow symbolic links.

The documentation doesn't describe how to delete these symbolic links. I've tried to open the key with REG_OPTION_OPEN_LINK and delete the value "SymbolicLinkValue" but it didn't work.

It looks like the target key needs to be saved in kernel mode as described
here:

http://support.microsoft.com/kb/264584

Is that true or are user and kernel mode valid now?


Best regards,
