No, local drive means physical drive in that machine, there are many of
them, (well, many partitions, at least).  I would not have used the term
"local drive" to refer to a network share, because that's not... well, a
local drive, really...

When you say its a local drive, do you mean its physically a local disk
drive? ie. a HD in that machine.

A drive with the letter H would suggest to me that its a network share,
not a local drive.  If it is a network share, then chances are that CF
is getting a file not found error. This because network shares are only
available to the logged in user.  If you want to use files over network
shares then this is a whole new ball game requiring CF be set up under a
specific user, that user having access to the network path, etc.
