UNC Format
Universal Naming Convention (UNC) is a naming format, to specify the location of servers, drives, folders, printers, and other resources, on a local area network (LAN).
UNC names begin with \\ (two backslashes) and take the form: \\ComputerName\ShareName
For example, a share named 'Test' on a computer named 'Res' will have the UNC name: \\Res\Test
You can also use UNC names on Unix computers, but you have to use forward slashes rather than backslashes. Example: //ServerName/Path
Example 1:
Remote System = win1
Remote mapped Folder = c:\test1
Mapped drive name = k:\
Share Name = test1
Use shared drive = \\win1\test1
Example 2:
Remote System = win2
Remote mapped Folder = c:\test2
Mapped drive name = m:\
Share Name = test2
If remote directory = c:\test2\temp
Mapped drive name = m:\temp
Use shared drive = \\win2\test2\temp
