did you browse to the location using the UNC path (going through
network neighborhood) make sure is not a drive letter like
c:\..\update.msi but it has to be a
\\server-with-update\share\update.msi

that is the only thing i can think of, besides the making sure that
all the files are in the shared folder. hope this helps.
