[users@httpd] Problem in Accessing Netware files from Apache Running as a Service

I have a Windows XP PC set up as follow:

    Apache 2.0.47
    Netware client C483 SP1E.

The PC is connected to a Netware 3.2 server
via the Netware client. The Netware volume 
is mapped as drive F:

In my httpd.conf file, I have added the following
so that Apache can access the files in F:\DATA
as follow:


    <Directory "F:/data">
    </Directory>

Before I run Apache, I log into the Netware server
using the Netware client. 

If I start Apache as a console application,
Apache starts up normally. 

However, I am unable to start Apache as a service.
When I try to do so, a dialog box "The requested operation 
has failed!" appears.

The Apache service is configured to log on as a service
using the Local System Account. 

How do I grant access to my Netware volumes to the Local
System Account so that I can run Apache as a service? 

Any assistance is highly appreciated.

Make sure you are running the Apache service as a user from the NetWare
domain that has access to these files.
Apache service must have the logon permissions to "read, write and execute"
on the netware share.

All the best,
