Kind of related, I have an Addonics NAS 4.0 adapter on one node that allows sharing two 32G thumbdrives. You access it across the Mesh by going to Run (XP) or Search (Win7) and typing "\\addnas". I've never figured out a way to publish this as a clickable service off the Mesh Status page... is there a way? I was pleasantly surprised when after I installed the IRC server on the same node I was able to provide a link to the IRC server as a service, and that PCs on the Mesh could click on that and it open their IRC client. Once online, someone could then tell them "for files, go to \\addnas" and the \\addnas would become clickable in the chat. Even more impressive was that if I gave them the full path and file's extension, as long as they had a program that it would open in, there was a clickable link that would open the program and the file... ain't technology grand?!!
