I tried your suggestion (no passwords) and no success. Any other
suggestions?

What you are looking at apparently is the representation of a UNC path
name as represented as a file: URL. A file URL has the form:
file://host/path
Most commonly the host is not specified, so you commonly see:
file:///path
A UNC path looks like:
\\share-name\path
Combine them together, you get:
file://///share-name/path
As far as I can tell, there is no mechanism to specify user name and
password on a UNC. However if you could find one, then if you
embedded it in the URL it might work.
More details on the file: URL scheme on Windows can be found at http://blogs.msdn.com/ie/archive/2006/12/06/file-uris-in-windows.aspx
. It suggests that:
file://share-name/path
However, the blog entry says that IE ignores the username and password
portions of the URL. However, you could give:
file://username:[EMAIL PROTECTED]/path
and maybe the Java URL handler on Windows does process the user name
and password.
Looks like you'd be better off using the shared folders capabilities
of your VM software and access the log file with a local path name.
