I believe you have to map the drive rather than use a unc. I might be wrong though.

We need to connect to an access database that resides on another server. I know to use the UNC path, and to make sure the ColdFusion service has rights to open the database on the other machine. There is no username and password for the database. The issue is that CF cannot verify the data source. I can set it up in Windows 2000 server and I can connect to it using SQLCon32. What else do I need to do in order to make CF verify the connection?
