Thats the way I have it configured that works on a PC, on Mac that link is
not clickable and the browsers don't reconzie it if I directly type it in the
browser

Hello themush1326,

What if you create the link like this:

\\servername\sharedfolder or \\ipaddress\sharedfolder

Best regards

I am trying to create links to a windows directory on a Mac. I am
trying to
display a link on Sharepoint and have a shared folder or a document
in that
folder be displayed. It works fine from a PC
To access that folder form a Mac you need to connect as
smb://servername/foldername; Sharepoint doesnt recognize that as a
link and
the browsers(Camini,Firefox and Safari) don't understand smb as
supported
protocol.
Any ideas how to do this?
