Excellent video thanks for sharing. Is the principle the same for individual user accounts to access their desktop/documents/pics etc across diff Mac machines? Thanks again

Thanks for the video Carlo. Very helpful. Just out of curiosity, would there be any issue doing this with a hidden share? like smb:\\192.168.0.30\data$

How would I view a shared mac osx folder in windows server 2012 R2? I setup a folder to share and have the smb address although I can only view the shared folder from a linux machine but have no idea how to connect to it using smb on windows server?
