Yes.. we have found that the cf server must have permissions and running as
that user AND That the user himself usually must be logged into the desktop
to use a "mapped" drive.  However, UNC mappings should work regardless of
whether the user is logged into the desktop. Perhaps someone else has a
different experience with how to get to mapped drives.

That doesn't mean that the user account of the CF server will be able to see
the drive mapping. By default, CF runs as SYSTEM, rather than as a specific
user. You might find this helpful:
