I am not using hard coded paths. My app uploads files (jpeg images
selected by browseForOpenMultiple) from LAN volume, e.g mapped to O:
on PC. To be able to get access to these files from Mac AIR app I need
the name of server which is mapped to this O: letter. And to be able
to access files uploaded from Mac on PC I need to know the letter on
which the server with saved name is mapped on PC.
