This is Windows, right? As these are not domain machines, create an account on the machine whic has permissions necessary to run CF, and set that as your CF account. Create an account on the remote machine with the same username and password that has permission to access the remote share. The credentials wil be passed from the server to the remote share and hopefully, you'll get in. Be sure to use UNC names rather that mapped drives - mapped drives are kept in user profiles and are not available across the entire system to all machines.
