Ztree cannot view files on an UNC volumne( Drive located on another computer or server.

It gives you an invalid drive specified.

I may not be explaining myself correctly.

I have a home server that I have some drives that with 4NT I can browse and access via the command line without mapping a drive letter to them.

For example:
I can do an CD \\workserver2\public\remote\ and access it just as if I had mapped it to a drive letter, which have not.
