Running PHP5 with IIS on a Win2K Server

whenever I try file_exists() on a file in a windows share on another
server I get a response of False - I can't open the file or do anything
with it. I'm sure the filename/path is Ok

$filename=
'//print-admin/Public$/planningprepress/planning/prepresslist.xls'

I've tried replacing all the '/' with chr(92) to no avail. The only
info I have found so far simply says that for Windows shares to use
//server/share/file which is what I have and the folder/file are
accessible by everyone.
What am I missing ?
