VC doesn't like setting up on a network drive

I'm trying to set up a VC workspace on a network drive. For a number of reasons, setting one up on a user workstation is impractical (who knows if the user will be here to turn on his machine?). However, I can't get VC to connect to a network server, neither by IP, nor by name, nor by path. Has anyone succeeded in setting up a VC workspace on a network server? How did you do it?

You have to install Version Cue on the actual server that will contain the workspace.

You can't install Version Cue on one machine and set the file locations on a different machine.

OK, thanks. That wasn't clear in the doco.
