Does the system support the Universal Naming Convention (UNC)?

Yes. UNC (Uniform Naming Convention), is a personal computing convention you can use to specify the location of resources, such as files or printers, on a local area network or LAN. UNC uses this format:

\\server-name\shared-resource-pathname

For example, to specify the location of a logo file named SGNATURE.LOG, in the \rps\mstrres\forms directory on a server named Oracle, you would enter:

\\Oracle\rps\mstrres\forms\sgnature.log

UNC is supported by Windows and many network operating systems, such as Novell Netware. You can also use explicit paths, like

c:\mstrres\deflib\ and \\ServerName\mstrres\deflib\

and relative paths, like...

\mstrres\deflib\ or .\wip

Support for these ways of handling paths is an operating system feature.
