October 25, 20178 yr Hello! In the past I had found a post regarding mapping shares on Server_A from Server_B via plugin. I was first looking into this when I noticed I was running out of usable space. I wanted to build a secondary server (server_B) but have shares mapped to the other one (Server_A). Primarily for Media management (plex). I found a thread that mentioned a plugin that would do just that. I can no longer find such thread/forum entry. Since plugins are a thing of the past, or soon to be, what would be the ideal way to map shares on Server_A from Server_B. I'd rather it be software via ethernet.

Not only will it let you use disks mounted outside the array, but it will also let you mount network shares from other computers.

That is exactly the plugin I had found in the past. On another note, I was under the impression the docker move was to phase out plugins. but if they are staying, better for me Cheers!

Code that adds functionality to the unRAID NAS or webUI must be done as plugins because they access unRAID features directly. You definitely should not be using a plugin for plex, for example.
