Hello,

        So I am trying to implement a small internal web server using Flask and 
Tornado. I would like it to run as a service. I am running into a problem 
though some of my underlying code needs to use UNC paths to grab files off 
other computers on the network. However at lease on our machine it seems the 
only way to do this is to run as a network service or at least that is what I 
want to try. So I made a stripped down version of the service and it will run 
fine a a local system service. If I change it to run as a Network Service it 
keeps failing. I keep getting error messages from the windows log like below

Python could not import the services's module
ImportError: No module named service
%2: %3

I have tried a couple of different things the module that is not found always 
seems to be the name of the file that is linked to the service in this case 
service.py. 

I have seen that there is am implementation that bypasses the PythonService.exe 
but there were some warnings attached to that. I just am trying to figure out 
if anyone has had this problem before and if I am going down the right path. My 
environment is
Windows Server 2008 R2

Thanks,

        Chris Nyland
