Hi Tim, This is for having the modules of an appserver on the filesystem, instead of a modules database, so I don't think this is applicable.
After Anne's email, the most likely explanation is that the process running MarkLogic does not "see" the drive mapping. Using a modules database and a watch command is good enough for me, more than taking any risk with windows config options. Thanks for the suggestion though.
