Symlink

Hi guys,
I have a script error when I ran a policy using the mountnetworkshare.sh

Script Result: /private/tmp/mountNetworkShare.sh: line 1: syntax error near unexpected token `newline'
/private/tmp/mountNetworkShare.sh: line 1: `<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//IETF//DTD HTML 2.0//EN">'

I was advised this is due to a missing Symlink and I need to recreate it between my JSS and Casper Share.
My JSS is running on a Windows 2008 Server with Apache Tomcat 7.0 and MySQL. Casper Share is on a Mac Mini running 10.7, which is DP and Netboot server. I cannot find any instruction how to achieve this. Can anyone help me out or other options about this problem?
Thank you all very much in advance.

    I don't think the OS the JSS is hosted on matters, since the symlink really just points to the CasperShare folder on the actual distribution point server that's running the http service, in your case, an OS X 10.7 box. Given that, this older KB article should still apply-

    Do you actually have http enabled on the 10.7 distribution point? Because I think thats the only time a symlink issue would pose a problem in the first place. If it was using straight AFP/SMB I'm not clear if would cause the errors you're seeing. But don't take my word on that part.

    And don't forget you can always call your account manager with stuff like this too. Thats why they're there.
