title: what's the UNC path for local computer from a remote machine?
body: <p>I am writing a small utility program in IronPython to install applications on remote machine using managementclass which uses WMI.</p>
  
  <p>Now, the script would install an application on Machine_B from Machine_A, it works fine as long as you have the msi file on the local drive of the Target machine (Machine_B, in this case). I want to be able to do same thing with .msi file being on the Host (Machine_A) machine.</p>
  
  <pre><code>network_scope = r"\\%Machine_B\root\cimv2" 
  scope =  ManagementScope(network_scope, options)
  scope.Connect()
  
  mp =  ManagementPath("Win32_Product")
  ogo = ObjectGetOptions()
  mc = ManagementClass(scope, mp, ogo)
  inParams = mc.GetMethodParameters ("Install")
  inParams["PackageLocation"] = r"C:\installs\python-3.1.1.msi"
  inParams["AllUsers"] = True
  retVal = mc.InvokeMethod ("Install", inParams, None)
  print retVal ["ReturnValue"].ToString() 
  </code></pre>
  
  <p><strong>PROBLEM :</strong></p>
  
  <p>[Machine A] --- Where I am running the script, and want to host the .msi file<br>
  [Machine B] --- where I want to install the application</p>
  
  <p>So, How can I define the UNC path for local machine ? 
  what will be <strong>inParams["PackageLocation"] = ??</strong></p>
