Directory Watcher Network Drive

[Actarus]

I was testing the directorywatcher gateway. I need to 'watch' a directory on a
network drive (Y:). It does not work, logs report 'cant find Y:\dirname' Works
perfect when using local drives. Is there a workaround? Thanks!

Actarus -

Does your web server know about this Y drive? My question assumed that CF is
installed on the web server (box).

... it is installed on the webserver box.. ive come to a solution asking Ben
Forta. It seems we almost solved it.. almost.. u have do use a
\\\\networkip\\workdir in the cfg file in order to access it. Problem is that
the gateway first starts correctly but then it stops.. dunno why, no log, no
error to check. arghh...

It works now. You have to use \\\\ :)
