Answer 1

caltor is right , little edit here , you can use cause it has alias.But I hate writing network drive in config like //p... also

There is another problem occurs here , in this method , you cannot execute exec() or batch file , cannot take the information of directory , open_dir etc cannot return a result , also apache cannot start as a service . To solve that,

First of all download http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/bb842062.aspx Extract zip file to C:/sys. Open cmd , and

cd c:/sys (enter)
psexec -i -s cmd.exe

then a new command line appears . All you need

net use j: \\lethea\sharedfolder /persistent:yes

will ask username and password of lethea pc . Here is j: the short name of the network drive . After doing this , in httpd.conf folder you dont need to create alias or write full network map to Documentroot and directory

Documentroot = "j:/mywww"  #referencing \\lethea\sharedfolder\mywww
