Check for original attachment over there!
When you call Win32::NetResource::GetUNCName() from within VirtualBox
v3.0.4,
which should return the UNC name when it is given a network drive letter, it
fails!!
What is the expected output?
C:\>net use z: \\winserver\install /user:test
C:\>Z:\testunc2.pl Calling GetUNCName z:
success $ret = \\pcserver\homes
What do you see instead?
C:\>net use z: \\winserver\install /user:test
C:\>Z:\testunc2.pl Calling GetUNCName z:
$ret = Unable to GetUNCName for z:: The network name cannot be found at
z:\testunc2.pl line 21.
Steps to reproduce this bug:
1. mount windows share to z:
2. run test code
3.
Please provide any additional information below.
