title: Using UNC path as paths location in Mercurial IIS6 Server2003
body: <p>I'm running the latest Mercurial and Python 2.6; IIS6 is using the wildcard ISAPI method to attach the site to the Mercurial hgwebdir_wsgi</p>
  
  <pre><code>[paths]
  \ = \\COMP3254\TestRepo\*
  
  [web]
  baseurl = /
  allow_push = *
  push_ssl = false
  style = monoblue
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>The setup works perfectly if I reference the local drive E:\repo* but doesnt work if I specify the network as above; I've given the server (MERCDEV01$) full permissions on the shared folder on COMP3254, I can't think of any other reason it wouldn't work.</p>
