Legacy Indexing service on Windows 2008 R2

Hello everyone, Im using the Legacy windows indexing service on 2008 R2 and trying to add a network share. I've followed the instructions (https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb727099.aspx?f=255&MSPPError=-2147217396) Getting an error message when adding a new directory that says 'Invalid Directory Name'.

The server that Im running the indexing service on has a network drive mapped to the share pointing to drive V:\

Status       Local     Remote                    Network

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
OK           V:        \\servername\v           Microsoft Windows Network
The command completed successfully.

In the MMC console for the Indexing plugin Im trying to add a directory. in the 'Path' box I've typed V:\library . The 'Alias (UNC) box contains the actual UNC path to get to this mapped drive '\\servername\v\library' . What am I doing wrong here ?

I can't use Windows Search so, im struggling to get this to work.
