Solution: Installing the "unassigned devices" plugin opens an option to add and mount SMB shares on the network. It is pretty neat.

 

Hi

 

I have a spanking new Unraid server up and running. I can now access my Unraid user shares on the network, for instance from a Windows machine.

 

Only to realise I have no idea how to access my existing NAS shares from inside Unraid. I've installed the file manager Krusader in Unraid, and I don't know how to open my existing SAMBA shares in order to move files between old and new locations.

Try install the Dynamix File Manager plugin...

Thanks for replying. I already had Dynamix. I guess I needed the Unassigned Drives plugin to get the option to add SMB shares from the Main tab.
