Symbolic links are supported only on Mac-OS native volumes. Not via any Internet Protocols.

There appear to be other restrictions. I am trialling at present, almost successfully but get this in my log file:

03:00:45.730: About to start copying
Cannot copy symbolic links to zip files.


A bit annoying as I get 13 of these on my iPhoto backup which makes it look incomplete. I have not investigated yet whether I have a real problem.

Yes that is so. I anticipate that there will be a solution in a future version but don't know when.

If you can find out exactly which symbolic links they are, maybe you can exclude them by typing their names in the Exclusion Masks field.
