Yes. I also have to redefine the HOME environment variable to P:/ and
do "cd P:/" before starting lyx, in order to get it to work correctly.
In this case, P: is the drive that I mounted the share on.

Oddly enough, lyx still complained
	QSettings: error creating P:/.qt

I don't know what the problem was. I created P:/.qt as an empty
directory using mkdir and all is well, apparently.

Anyway, thank you for the suggestion Mr. Hall.
