Then your options are limited to having the same user on each machine and running the CF service as that user. Just make the user an administrator and use the administrative shares if you aren't comfortable playing with the permissions.
There is a hidden admin share for each drive on the machines. For instance, the C drive can be accessed by \\servername\c$\ (if it hasn't been explicitly disabled) D drive would be \\servername\d$\ etc... If it is for development only and not accessible outside of a corporate/dev firewall, doing this would have very limited security risks. ..:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.
