ODBC, mxODBC problem

I didn't have any problems making it work on the same WinNT machine
using Perl. And yes, the DSN was defined in the ODBC manager. I suspect
that Python seems to treat WinNT network shares rather odd. Maybe a
little enlightenment on how it interacts with other servers would do
the trick. I tried this script:

n=open(r"\\www\c$\cgi-bin\test.dat","r+")

and I've been getting "Permission denied" messages. I wonder what WinNT
account Python uses and how I should share the said file so I can open
it from the machine where the script originates.
