Accessing Symbolic links inside the tomcat aliases

In My application's context.xml inside meta-inf,

I have created aliases as shown below.

<Context aliases="/a=/d/e/a"/>

the path /d/e/a is a shared mount path which is outside of the web application.

Now the problem is when i try to access a below content

/d/e/a/h/zzz.pdf, am getting 404 error. the reason is h is a symbolic link in the mount which points to the another path say /i/j/k in the mount.

So how to access the folders having symbolic links inside the tomcat aliases?
