Running extension from a UNC path

Twiddle

Heya,

I'm having some troubles here loading the extension over a UNC path.

If i:

1: Map \\Storage\Private\ as a networkdrive - lets say P:
2: Adds full trust to this networkdrive using:

Code:
CasPol.exe -m -ag 1.2 -url file://P:/* FullTrust
Everything works just fine! But if i try to use the UNC path, it doesnt. Trying to add full trust to the network as described here, but it just wont work :-/

Code:
CasPol.exe -m -ag 1.2 -url file://\\Storage/Private/* FullTrust
When i start the extension im getting this error:

Code:
There has been a critical error in initializing ISXEQ2 (Error BD-1).

I've tried a lot of things considering how to specify the path:

- file://\\Storage/Private/*
- file://\\Storage\Private\*
- file://Storage/Private/*
- \\Storage/Private/*
- Storage\Private\*

etc....

But none of them seem to be doing the trick.

Anyone having some good ideas? :confused:

Thanks in advance.

yep, don't use a UNC path. it's not supported.

if you use Vista (or 7) NTFS you can make and use a directory junction, or feel free to map to a drive letter.

What is it that doesnt support UNC paths? Is it the code developed by Amadeus, or is it caspol? Because i see plenty of examples around the web describing how to do it - yet, none of them works.
