Any service or process running in the context of the Windows SYSTEM account is not permitted to access UNC network paths. This is because there is no way for the SYSTEM account to authenticate with a remote host to verify permissions for the shares, files, and folders. If you change the service to run with a specific user account, then that user account will be used to authenticate to the remote host being accessed, and UNC paths should be accessible (assuming there aren't other issues with SB Server). As evidenced by this MS Knowledge Base article, this has been a part of the OS since the Windows NT days (Win95, 98, and ME do not count here as they did not use the core NT security structure): http://support.microsoft.com/kb/124184 -- virgiliomi ------------------------------------------------------------------------ virgiliomi's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=33715 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=84697 _______________________________________________ beta mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/beta
