Re: Crossplatform URLs to access Samba shares

At work I have setup a wiki based Intranet to access data and files on
our network. I have linked to many files throughout the Intranet by
using the file:/// convention (file:///N:\05Wiki\SVM%20July%2005.doc)
it works great for almost all of my users (Windows) with the exception
of our one OS X user. I realize the naming convention for Mac is
different (smb://path/to/file).

Is there a way I can get the URLs to work the same way on both
platforms without making two seperate links on each page? Perhaps some
sort of dynamic solution?

Try the smb:// format for both.
