Access is denied on mklink
===

I am trying to get a symlink working over a network drive.

I have already tried suggestions on questions already asked, such as running as administrator and checking if the directory already exists. Unfortunately it still gives me the following error:

    C:\Windows\system32>mklink /d \\myserver\someLink \\myserver\mydir
    Access is denied.

Any ideas how I could get this working? The local machine is running windows 7 and the remote machine is running windows server 2008 R2 standard.
