How to make a folder on another server pc in ColdFusion 9 with cfdirectory

Question

Currently I am trying to make a folder with the following code:

<cfdirectory action="create" directory="\\192.168.1.152\abc(that's my shared folder)\xyz" type="dir">

• I am using win xp home edition and the other side is windows server 2008.
• I am running my ColdFusion 9 application service as a user that I have made on the server.
• It gave me error that folder already exists. But when I check, there is no folder (xyz)

Please give me any configuration on win server 2008 or ColdFusion 9 server.

I would try accessing a mount (http://www.microsoft.com/resources/documentation/windows/xp/all/proddocs/en-us/mountvol.mspx?mfr=true) or using a symbolic link (mklink) and access it as a normal folder.
