[Zope] Zope service network permissions on NT

[Capesius, Alan]

ODBC DSNs don't require drive mappings, use UNC names by typing them into
the filename prompt.

To map drives under the service's login account, login to the machine as the
service account and map the drives. This will however prevent you from
unmapping the same drives as a different user from the desktop. This can be
very confusing if you are not aware of what is going on.

I don't use NFS so I can't address that specifically, but try the UNC's
(sometimes you can sub them in the settings file even when the GUI doesn't
allow the config.)
