the condor service should really run as local admin anyway.

cool - I just wanted to check. it is the IWD that is the issue

this file has to get transferred since you are going to a windows
machine and thus the executing user has no privilidge to acess a
remote file system even if it was exposed...
(I am assuming you are not currently trying to use the new
functionality in the latest condor where you can store credentials
with a server so the remote user will be the same as the submitting
one?)

Try forcing file transfer (it may think that the shared file system is
available to the executing machine as you are submitting from linux)
Look at should_transfer_files in the condor_submit docs and try
leaving your paths relative.

Also
