This bug has been reported to the ActivePerl bug database at

http://bugs.activestate.com/show_bug.cgi?id=84368

Check for original attachment over there!

When you call Win32::NetResource::GetUNCName() from within VirtualBox
v3.0.4,
which should return the UNC name when it is given a network drive letter, it
fails!!

What is the expected output? 
C:\>net use z: \\winserver\install /user:test
C:\>Z:\testunc2.pl Calling GetUNCName z: 
success $ret = \\pcserver\homes

What do you see instead?
C:\>net use z: \\winserver\install /user:test
C:\>Z:\testunc2.pl Calling GetUNCName z: 
$ret = Unable to GetUNCName for z:: The network name cannot be found at
z:\testunc2.pl line 21.

Steps to reproduce this bug:
1. mount windows share to z:
2. run test code
3. 


Please provide any additional information below.
