Then you are saying that either
       <map:generate type="directory" src="////Bambi/store/">
or
       <map:generate type="directory" src="\\\\Bambi\store\">
or
<map:generate type="directory" src="file:\\\\Bambi\store\">
or
<map:generate type="directory" src="file:////Bambi/store/">

should work?
But it does not work for me... Did I get that wrong?
