posix does not display hard links as special file/dir attributes.
windows/dos does: cmd.exe dir lists it correctly (<VERBINDUNG> in
german). totalcmd as <LNK>

ls -li will print the number of links and inode number of each file.
such hard links will have the same inode number and same number of links.
Sorry, I'm not aware of a simple utility to print such hardlinks, esp. 
since linux does not support hardlinked directories.

before doing that:
do you need the x64 version of junction.exe?
there's none yet. you'll have to compile it by your own.
