Is SlimServer running as a Windows service or as a user process ("run
at logon" or somesuch wording in SlimTray)?
If it's running as a service, then you may have to run the service
under a Windows user account instead of the built-in SYSTEM account.
Create an account specifically for SlimServer and modify the service
startup to use this account. Then try again to enter the UNC path to
the library.
