You can use UNC path names using 4 slahes: file:////myserver/myshare
regards, Wim PS: Does anybody know why FireFox requires 5 slahes, like file://///myserver/myshare ? -----Original Message----- From: Nicolas De Loof [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: maandag 7 maart 2005 14:47 To: Maven Users List Subject: Re: Setting up internal repository I don't think you can use the "file" protocol from Java to access another computer from windows shares. You should mount the Shared folder from Vindaloo (let's say "V:") and use it in your repository path : maven.repo.remote=file:///V:/repository maven.repo.internalrepository=file:///V: in a file URL, the third "/" means "localhost root", this is the reason your jar is deployed to C:/ "file:///" == "file://localhost/" You can try to use "file://Vindaloo/", but I've no idea if it may work.
