    Cannot get fileshare links to work with Intranet solution (ie: file:///\\fileshare)

    Everyone,

    I'm new to Umbraco. I'm using it as a soltuion for a company intranet.

    We have a lot of media in fileshares across networks. I want to have a hyperlink point to a Windows file share.

    When I use Webmatrix, I can get this to work without any issues in our test environment. I pushed the site to a production environment (Sever 2008, IIS 7) and all of my file links convert from file:///\\fileshare to file://fileshare, which in turn break the functionality.

    This may be trivial as I'm new to IIS and Umbraco. Is there a better solution or is there something I'm missing here?

    I figured this out for anyone with the same issue.

    If you're using Internet Explorer, make sure to add in the umbraco URL to the 'Trusted Sites' section.

    Internet Options > Security Tab > Click the 'Trusted Sites' icon, then click the 'Sites' button > Enter in your umbraco URL > Click Add
