The macOS version of NSMB is notable for its now-common scheme of representing symlinks. This "Minshall-French" format shows symlinks as textual files with a {{code|.symlink}} extension and a {{code|Xsym\n}} magic number, always 1067 bytes long. This format is also used for storing symlinks on native SMB servers or unsupported filesystems. Samba supports this format with an {{code|mfsymlink}} option.<ref>{{cite web |title=UNIX Extensions |url=https://wiki.samba.org/index.php/UNIX_Extensions#Storing_symlinks_on_Windows_servers |website=SambaWiki |access-date=March 15, 2020 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200612000308/https://wiki.samba.org/index.php/UNIX_Extensions#Storing_symlinks_on_Windows_servers |archive-date=June 12, 2020 |url-status=live }}</ref> Docker on Windows also seems to use it.{{Citation needed|date=May 2020}}
