I've never seen nor used NFS on Windows so I can't comment on NFS. Some
time ago I did some experiments with links but I wasn't able to create a
hard link on a remote SMB server. However Wikipedia claims that CIFS
support hard and sym links. Your conclusion regarding server and client
version sounds plausible.

In my humble opinion links are aliens on Windows. I wouldn't use them to
implement virtualenv. :)
