Well you are in the right place, though this can be a pain, so be prepared.

First, I wouldn't access "mapped" drives, like N:\, but shares, "\\servername\share", those are UNC paths, and much more compatible than using drive names, since the account that is accessing them doesn't need to have them mapped.

As for actually having permissions to access them, that really depends on how you have set up the security in your application, can you explain what you are after?
