Apache DocumentRoot to a Network Directory for Virtual Host
Here is Answer http://adam-carter.com/posts/158
Change your DocumentRoot to the network share (drive remapping doesn’t seem to work). Example: DocumentRoot “//path/to/share”
Make sure to update the DocumentRoot path in your config
Edit the Apache service and On the “Log On’” tab, click the “Browse” button next to the “This account” radio button.
Type in an account name that has access privileges to the network share and click “OK”
Enter the correct password for the user Restart Apache and LOL your way to the bank.
Using this you can add Network Drive, Network Directory to both Virtual Host as well as in Alias.

NameVirtualHost *:80 <VirtualHost *:80> ServerName tmp DocumentRoot "//192.168.1.25/www/" <Directory /> Options Indexes FollowSymLinks AllowOverride All Order allow,deny Allow from all </Directory> </VirtualHost>
This configuration is not working, Services can't start from Services.msc but if i tried to run httpd.exe in cmd.exe then it successful and obviously its not good way.
I have tried Alias but still not working, services Run but when i access its
403 Access Error.
I tried Map Network Drive to Z: but Services Fail to run from Services.msc
Do any one have good solution to Run Apache DocumentRoot from a Network Directory or Network Drive for virtual host.
