How to tell if a file is actually a link...??

Hello Everyone,

I have a need to tell if a file is a 'link' instead of a real file.

Basically I need to read a Linux/Unix file system (currently using
FindFirstFile/FindNextFile - WinAPIs to do it) - and tell if a file is a
Link instead of a real file.

Any thoughts as to how I might do it??  Is there an attribute I can
check?  Or another Windows API I can call?

Any thoughts would be appreciated!
