UNC Paths

[Dan Phillips]

Hello,

I've just installed Mapserver on Windows XP and would like to use UNC in my
OGR Connection (e.g. "//HP_SERVER/RDRIVE/STREETS/STREETS.TAB") to reference
the map data rather than use mapped drives (e.g. "R:/STREETS/STREETS.TAB").
I'm getting the error:

msDrawMap(): Image handling error. Failed to draw layer named 'Water'.
msOGRFileOpen(): OGR error. Open failed for OGR connection
`//HP_SERVER/RDRIVE/STREETS/STREETS.TAB'. File not found or unsupported
format.

What am I doing wrong?
