php access network path under windows

I solved it by changing some stuff in the registry of the server as explained in the last answer of this discussion:

Thanks to VolkerK and Gumbo anyway!
I love stackoverflow and their great people who help you so incredibly fast!!

EDIT (taken from php.net):

The service has limited access to network resources, such as shares
and pipes, because it has no credentials and must connect using a null
session. The following registry key contains the NullSessionPipes and
NullSessionShares values, which are used to specify the pipes and
shares to which null sessions may connect:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\LanmanServer\Parameters
Alternatively, you could add the REG_DWORD value
RestrictNullSessAccess to the key and set it to 0 to allow all null
sessions to access all pipes and shares created on that machine.`

add RestrictNullSessAccess=0 to your registery.
