Synology and symlinks

Has anyone had any luck with Ubuntu (20.04LTS), Synology NASes, Windows
shares and symlinks?

Can't get 'em working properly. The only way I can make them is with
rsync, but Nautilus handles them incorrectly (it handles normal
symbolic links just fine, just not those on a Synology SMB share). Or
it doesn't see some of them them at all, which is weird.

Am I going to have to go to NFS? Say it isn't so!

Regards, K.

PS: I did have to drop the SMB protocol version to 1 to let Ubuntu
connect to the Synology's shares at all... maybe that's related.
