I want to create a roaming profile on one of my networked machines
It says to address the server e.g.

//Servername/directory/Directory

but how do i address a drive on a server

//ComputerName/G:/Directory/Directory ?

Or are servers single drives - In which case how do i adress the above drive
on a network - should I give that drive a name? maybe map a network drive to
that drive?
 
First, you are using the wrong "/", it should be "\" and second the correct
syntax for UNC names is as follows:
\\computername\foldername\foldername\etc
 
so, back to my original question

how would i address a drive on a server?

\\computername\G:\folder\folder
 
You'll need to map a share to the drive you want to access, you can't put
drive letters in the name.
