How can I reach a shortcut folder on IIS?

I have a shortcut folder on iis under wwwroot file. But I do not reach it like this : www.mydomain/myshortcutfolder/a.jpg How can I reach it?

I do not want to create virtual directory because my orginal file has write permission but I want to create shortcut folder , I want it has just read permission,

thanks

You can reset IIS using Start -> Run -> cmd -> iisreset

You can go to IIS Manager using : Start -> Run -> inetmgr

Use a Junction. It's powerful, cool, but scary, too. Read carefully.

It works only for folders on the same physical NTFS drive. If you delete a file from a junction folder, you delete the source, too.

See http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/bb896768.aspx

BTW, permissions on a virtual directory in IIS can be different that the folder permissions. Set IIS so the folder is read only.
