[Samba] on symbolic links

[Xen]

I'm using samba to mount a share from a linux device onto a linux 
computer.

Obviously, for some reason, I can *see* the symbolic links as links, 
however I cannot delete or create them. But the only Linux/Unix 
alternative seems to be NFS, which is not really suited for what I want 
(annoyance with users having to map, etc.)

Is there any sort of commonsensical approach to this that can solve my 
issues with this?

Regards,

Xen.
