Hi,
I am using FreeFilesync since years for keeping a mirror of my music-files in sync.
The mirror is a small Windows 10 PC and serves as a media-server.
The source for the mirror is my main Working-PC with Windows 10 where I work on the files permanently.

I am thinking about switching from Windows to Linux for the mirror (media-server). My media-server-software is available for both OS.

My music-library depends not only on tags but also on a folder-structure and NTFS-folder-symlinks.
These have to be kept in sync with the mirror in direct way and created on the mirror as EXT4-symlinks too.

Is this possible with FreeFileSync?
If not I cannot change the OS on the mirror to Linux.

Nobody ever tried to sync symlinks from Windows (NTFS) to Linux (EXT4)?
