Are there any know issues with network drives? Any network drives file systems limitations? Is agent supposed to work smoothly and transparently over any type of network drive file system and mapping protocol?

There is one important thing, you need to care of.

All mapped network drives in Windows are connected only for the current user's session. By default, Resilio Connect Agent runs as either a Local System or Local Service user. As a result, Agent is unable to see any network drives that are normally seen by your user. This is Windows OS limitation which can be fixed by explicit mapping of a drive for a Local System user.

Here I attach the guide just in case.
