Obviously, wwwroot does not exist on your local drive, and maped drives
must be mapped identically on the server running Serv-U. So long story
short, use UNC.
when saving the new user (remember I am

In Emerald Admin, set the home dir as \\servername\wwwroot <just like this>
and it should create the dir withoout a problem. Make sure that wwwroot is
a shareed dir.
The system running Serv-U must be logged in as an account with Adminitrator
privlidges, if Serv-U is running as an application. Or at least Admin
rights on the shared dir.
In addition to the following:
