Hello,

I remember that in general, the computer account is not used
automatically when accessing a network share by a service running under
the local system account except for certain "trusted paths" which by
default includes an AD domain's DFS. This is how it works in our
network. There used to be some documentation on Microsoft's website as
referenced in this mail:
http://lists.wpkg.org/pipermail/wpkg-users/2008-September/003919.html,
but now it is gone...

But I don't know how the current WPKG Client implementation handles this
option.

Kai.
