If your system is configured to access places on a network, you can use the file manager to access the network places.

To access network places, open the file manager and choose Places->Network Servers. A window opens that displays the network places that you can access. Double-click on the network that you want to access.

To access UNIX shares, double-click on the Unix Network (NFS) object. A list of the UNIX shares available to you is displayed in the file manager window.

To access Windows shares, double-click on the Windows Network (SMB) object. A list of the Windows shares available to you is displayed in the file manager window. (Next: Accessing Special URI Locations)
