Hi,

We have a lot of documents linked using the mapped drive.  To switched to
UNC will require me to change all the links.  
I had already tried what you suggested 2 weeks ago.  It didn't work.  It
didn't work even on a clean installation.
The mapped drive seem to work on our production server, but I am not able to
reproduce the same setup on another computer.

If I were you I would use UNC paths if possible instead of relying on 
mapped drives.

However, having said that, you should be able to setup the service to run as
a particular user.  I believe it should be a domain user.  Then log into the
server using that domain login and map the drive 
persistently.  Then logout.  The mapped drive should be available to 
the service when it runs.

I came across a windows scheduled task just a few months ago that was setup
to write out to a file on a mapped drive like this and it 
seemed to work.  I converted it to UNC and unmapped the drive though because
I didn't like doing that.
