Well, my NDA prevents me from getting too specific.  But I don't think 
I'm giving anything away by saying that it's probably a bad assumption 
to assume that the same path will be correct in both cases.  You could 
stand to look at whatever code generates fname and make sure it's not 
making assumptions that don't apply in both cases.
