Idea 1: It is not going to work, EVER, as Oracle doesn't support UNC Idea 2: If you manage to back the database up, you probably will have a hard time restoring it (This happened to me recently, using nfs, at a customer equally 'smart' as your customer)

Idea 3: Disk is cheap
Idea 4: Disk is cheap
Idea 5: Disk is cheap
Idea 6: Did I say disk is cheap? Your attempts to get it working are

probably going to cost more than buying a disk.
