WUT-123: The webutil.jar file cannot be found...

Question

Hello,
I am having a problem using webutil to upload to a 9iAS using a mapped network drive. Here's the set up:
MachineA
9iAS
Windows2000
I simply mapped the drive (X:) to a folder on MachineA's
local drive (d:\folder). I can upload files fine to the directory on the local drive (d:\folder). But if I try to upload to the mapped x:\, I get the error (from the webutil.log):
"WUT-123: The webutil.jar file cannot be found on the Appliciation Server Classpath - Some file transfer functions will not work. x:\attach\VISIBLE-149.TXT java.io.FileNotFoundException: x:\attach\VISIBLE-149.TXT (The system cannot find the path specified)"
I have no problems with uploading files if I upload to MachineA's local drive (d:\folder).
When I was initially testing this out on 9iDS, this was working. Here's the set up:
MachineB
9iDS
WindowsNT
The 9iDS was on a different machine running WindowsNT and I had mapped X: to the same folder on MachineA. I could upload to the mapped drive without any problems.
In both cases, I used the same client machine to test out uploading files.
Any suggestions?

I think that the opmn process starts with the credentials of the user who installed it (Local System) and not the credentials of the current user which launches it.
I remember that when I tried to switch the user of the opmn service(from local system to a network user which is also a local admin) in the Windows services control panel,the OHS hasn't started at all.
If you try to launch it from a DOS cmd window,then,you may try to map the hard drive in the dos command prompt,the service should know the drive name from this local context.
If it works,can you ,please, post here,so we can all know the way?
Thanks,
