I just heard back from them and you are right. They don't offer UNC paths.
However,
they did say I probably need a designated server running server software.
That floored me
as they have NEVER mentioned server software in all the years they have been
providing
the software. Don't the developers of software generally make the server
software????

They are implying that I need to get a dedicated server. I have the
hardware and don't mind
buying the software, but there are NO instructions from them. How am I
supposed to know
what to do???

Thanks for any help!!!!
