UNC path support





------- Additional Comments From keshlam@us.ibm.com  2002-02-27 21:28 -------
Xalan expects filenames to be URIs, and UNCs are not URIs. (Neither are DOS 
filenames, but I believe we have a special-case that tries to accept them as 
such.)

I'm not sure whether this would work, but try entering your UNC as
  file:///\\fasgamma\vdev\...\index.html
to explicitly say that you want your PC's filesystem to interpret the request.

I don't think this is a bug. It _might_ be an enhancement request, but frankly 
I'd really rather not get further into the business of guessing what the proper 
conversions are.
