[Zope] LocalFS product

[Capesius, Alan]

I just verified that the UNC path names work if the security is applied
properly to the LocalFS Add entry.

>From your UNC path it looks like you may be specifying the path incorrectly.
You should be pointing LocalFS at a folder name, not a filename.
\\server\sharepoint\folder  or \\server\sharepoint

Pointing to a filename results in: 
 Error Type: OSError
 Error Value: [Errno 267] Unknown error

Which is invalid directory, because the filename is not a directory.
