Re: [fossil-users] fossil on windows-file-server with unc-path
Easy fix while people think of real answers: map a drive letter to \\server\path -- Will Owen West On Mon, Feb 28, 2011 at 01:15, Christian Busch busch.christ...@gmx.de wrote: Hello user group, I have an issue with unc pathes on a windows machine.

Re: [fossil-users] fossil on windows-file-server with unc-path
Hello, thank you for the hint with the drive letter, I knew this option but I'd like to avoid this extra step. I'm only working on windows machines so I don't know whether this is a windows specific problem or how it looks on other os. For the unc-path I only can refer to wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Path_%28computing%29#Uniform_Naming_Convention But I guess you've already checked this. Any suggestion more from somebody?
