By default, neither UNC paths or drive letters mapped to shares would work
with any version of CF. By default, the CF service runs within the SYSTEM
security context, which has no rights to network resources. To access either
UNC paths or drive letter mappings, you'd need to either run the CF service
as a specific user with rights to those network resources, or create a
connection to the resource that could be used by the SYSTEM security
context. I seem to recall that within a domain, you could do this by
creating a persistent mapping as a domain administrator, but I may be
misremembering that, and it doesn't sound like a good idea anyway.
