Thanks Derek
I can to that conclusion when I tried drivetype() on all drive letters to
see what was there.
I also tried the pathing. In fact I tried just the server and it says it
cant see that.
I have some code to get a directory and look to see if it exists.
the code says if !directory(datadir) then return "Cant find directory"
I made the directory \\gslserver\ which does exist but can not be found.

No, you can't access network resources from inside a service, unless the
service is running as a network/domain user. This is a security measure.
Also, network 'drives' are only mappings in your current user session, and
services(IIS) run in their own session, so your "drives"
simply don't exist... You'll need to use UNC pathing...
