Remember you aren't living in the GUI. You don't have explorer.exe in
place as a service, so your environmental consideration are missing.
NOW - it's rather trivial if you
1. set your run-as account to an authorized file user of those network
resources (workgroup, or nt domain member). NEVER use LocalSystem
aka SYSTEM account for this purpose, or change it's permissions.
2. use absolute file syntax instead of drive letters. E.g., for S:
mounted from \\bigbertha\cdrive\ copy of htdocs, you would use
Alias /docs/ //bigbertha/cdrive/htdocs/
and the same, for the <Directory > sections, DocumentRoot, etc.
