in reply to running Perl 6 from a network share?

If all your server and workstations run compatible versions of Windows, you could give that share a drive-letter and for all purposes every server and workstation would think the shared-drive is part of its own system. So there is no reason why it would not work.

    Technically speaking, mapped drives are not transparent to the application and some will complain about using a network share. If you you need to fool an application then the 'subst' command usually works. I do not think it matters in this case but I did not want anyone to get the wrong impression.
