I had some UNC issues though, when I start lyx from cmd, C:\Program Files\LyX16\bin>lyx LyX: reconfiguring user directory '\\xxxxx.com\xxxxx\UserData-LN\hicham.mouline\Application Data\lyx16' CMD.EXE was started with the above path as the current directory. UNC paths are not supported. Defaulting to Windows directory. configure: TeX engine needs windows-style paths in latex files I forced lyx to start with -userdir "C:\Documents and Settings\hicham.mouline" then that works perfectly.
Makes sense. LyX does not play well with UNC addresses, so having your home directory for LyX on a remote server is tricky. If you map the server directory to a local drive letter, I think you'll be ok.
