UNC UNC (Universal Naming Convention) is a way to specify a path
describing the location of a network resource, such as shared
folders, or shared printers, on a network, Microsoft Networks
(SMB).
The UNC syntax uses "\\" before the hostname, hostname and
resource name are delimited by "\".
If the hostname is "myhost", and if its host shared folder name
is "sharefolder", the UNC syntax is described as follows:
\\myhost\sharefolder
