Link to shared drive, possible?

Hi-

I'm developing an intranet application for my place of employment using xPages. A few of my clients have asked for a link that would open a particular directory in our windows environment, which is within the same network.

Something like this: \\TestServer\HR\Planning\2013

Thank you for any encouragement/discouragement you can provide.

Tommy-

Thanks. The solution you linked to (pasted below) looks like the ticket.

Setup IIS on the network server and change the path to http://server/path/to/file.txt

EDIT: Make sure you enable directory browsing in IIS
