This bug has been reported to the ActivePerl bug database at http://bugs.activestate.com/show_bug.cgi?id=84368 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.
