I get there are differences between a regular shortcut and a symbolic link but confess I don't understand what they are.

No link needed shortcut will work. Just add the folder shortcut to the Copy's folder and it will upload the folders and each time you update them on dropbox it will update them on Copy.

I'm not sure why the symbolic link would ever be needed for Copy?
