Accessing images on network drive

Hoping someone can help me out with an issue I'm having. I'm storing the network location of images in MYSQL, and attempting to display them on the list page of a PHPR project.
If the image location is local, the image shows up without a problem.
If the image location is on a mapped network drive, the image can't be found (I get the default PHPR image indicating no file).
FWIW: I can drop the path to the shared network path images into a browser address bar and they display no problem.
I understand that Apache and/or PHP may be prevented from seeing network locations.
Any suggestions for making these network images visible to my PHPR application?
Thanks for any help!

Thanks very much, I appreciate that.

I've tried the suggestions in the link but without a change in result. I've also tried giving the Apache service a different "Log On As" user but that didn't do the trick either.

Gonna see if there are other Apache settings I might be missing, in case the problem lies there.

Thanks again.
