Thread:Project:Support desk/Hyperlink To Files On A Server

How do you hyperlink from within MediaWiki to a file on a server within your network?

I'm finding mixed suggestions on how to do this, but cannot find the proper way as I keep getting errors no matter how I do it.

These are the suggestions I have come across;

name/folder/folder/file \\server name\folder\folder\file

Thanks for your help!
