Yet another reason Apple offers an inferior product, apparently OS X's Finder cannot follow symlinks in Samba (although Windows and any *nix GUI has no problem). I have yet to test this, but I'm almost positive that using the OS X terminal (essentially bash for BSD), one can follow symlinks, just not through Apple's GUI.
Found this out last night trying to get my roommate/coworker's site up on my server. I ended up just creating a separate Samba share to the symlinked directory.
But hey, OS X is so pretty, who needs it to actually work like any other OS should :-p
