RTI_Lock_Release - UNC path issue (OpenInsight 64-bit)

I've received the UNC path error message for several different routines. RTI_Lock_Release is the latest. I get this error running from a workstation in OI 10.2 and OI 10.2.1. If I run the lock release from the server it works properly. The error message I get is "1006 - Unable to determine the complete UNC path of the file name." I'm running OI from a mapped drive and the table in question is attached and I have access to the table from within OpenInsight.
Is this a bug, or do I not have something set up properly?

Sounds like a bug.
OI tries to translate the information in the file handle into a table name. The information in the file handle is a path from the context of the UD, not from the context of the client. For example, from the client the path might be "\\dataserver\prod\accounting" while from the server the path might be "d:\revsoft\accounting" OI tries to work backwards from the handle to get the table name. We tried to write code that works even if the table is not attached in the session so that the UD manager can release any lock. You are hitting a case where the logic fails. I'll follow up with you by email for more specifics.
