Mount Network Share as Drive Even When No User is logged in

[Guest]

I need to mount a network share as a hard drive for a service running under
LocalSystem to access even when there is no user logged into the computer.

More detail:
I've used srvany.exe to install a normal application as a service. I need to
interact with this application, therefor, it must run as LocalSystem. The
problem is, LocalSystem does not have Network Access, and this program needs
to be able to access a folder on another computer on the network even if
there is no one logged in. This application running even if no one is logged
in was the whole point of installing it as a service in the first place.

Now, before assuming I don't need to interact with it, if I want it to run
even when no one is logged in... I do need to occaisionally log in and
interact with the application, and need it to continue running if I log off.
I also need it to run if there is some sort of system failure that results in
a restart of Windows, and no one is around to log in and start the
application. All that's taken care of, I just need the application to be able
to access a folder on the network.

Now that I'm done talking in circles and rambling on...
Any help in this matter will be very much appreciated.

Someone has pointed me to a program called StarWind. I'll come back here and
mention whether or not it works, in case anyone else needs to do similar.
