   I solved that issue by moving the fido installation into it's own drive   
   letter. You could share c:\bbs to x:\ on the windows server. All config   
   references would move from c:\bbs to x:\ and fido would start at x:\ as   
   working dir.

   What about UNC names? Another approach is to target the files directly without   
   use of the mounting mechanism. //server/share/path is a valid adress in the   
   windows file explorer.   
      
   This reminds me to the escape chars in some *nix shells. "echo \n" displays   
   "n" instead of "\n". To see "\n" you have to say "echo \\n".   
      
   Increase the loglevel and look if golded tells you what it does really use for   
   path names.   
      
   Regards
