Like I said, cross your fingers.  I'm not convinced that SlimServer
always handles Windows paths correctly, especially to content on other
servers.  I only have a single machine on my network currently, so
can't do any testing.

If you're running SlimServer on Windows as a service, it needs to run
under a user account.  In any case, drive mappings are often difficult
to get working for a service.  Try using UNC paths instead.
