It would appear so (that nobody else is doing this) by the lack of help
stepping forward.  Actually, I have e-mailed two others who had similar
troubles.  One of them fixed the problem by modifying permissions, and the
other fixed it by upgrading the package.  I've done both of these still
with no success.  (I just upgraded to 2.0.7, and I'm still getting the same
errors.)  Actually, I haven't tried this directly, it's one of my clients,
and they may be doing something different than I would... but it's working
on their Windows shares...

The nice thing about open-source is that "impossible" doesn't exist.  The
bottom line on implementation problems is, "How much time do you want to
spend?" or "Do you want to code this?"
