$fp = fopen("\\server\share\file.txt");

fails, apparently because the doubled slash is removed by line 139 in fopen_wrappers.c prior to path validation. 

For this reason, escaping the path using a syntax such as "\\\\server\\share\\file.txt" can not work.

The backslash is the escape character of PHP3. You should write it as

fopen("\\\\server\\share\\file.txt");

Ok, patch is in CVS, change will appear in PHP 3.0.8.
