I actually was able to use Mount Points for the network shares in my setup (been doing it since day one). You just have to get the permissions correct. This way I don't have to map any drives or remember and UNC paths.

I have all my ISO images on the file server, and even all my .VHD differenceing disk parent images on the file server. All accessed via mount points (symbolic links).

Can you still do snapshots using a VHD file remotely via a SMB share?
