How to fake a file path on the local network for a program?

Question

Active Directory

Good day to all.
There is a problem, the 1c configuration is looking for an external report on a computer in the local network \\srv-shared\1c\vnesh_otchet.epf
is it possible to change the path without tinkering with the configuration? those. via hosts file or other methods? In theory, you can raise a domain and create a computer in it with a given name and path to the file (we are not looking for easy ways ¯\_(シ)_/¯ )
We need a temporary solution.

Answer 1

Symlink

Answer 2

Maybe it's easier to pick it up as an external one.
If this is a typical configuration, the "Additional reports and processing" mechanism is present.
