Mapping a Network Drive (Apple OS X) 
For most shared computers or servers you can locate and connect using the Finder Network browser. If you 
can’t locate the computer or server, you may be able to find it by typing its network address in the Connect to 
Server dialog. 
Network Addresses 
A network address is the protocol followed by the DNS name and any additional pathname for the computer. 
You can also use the IP address for the computer rather than its DNS name. 
Windows 
To connect to SMB/CIFS (Windows) servers and shared folders, type the DNS name using one of the 
following: 
smb://DNSname/sharename 
smb://IPaddress/sharename 
You can also use the computer name. If you don’t specify the shared folder as part of the address, you can 
choose it after you enter your user name and password. 
  
Connecting to a Server 
On an Apple computer connect to shared computers and servers using a network address.  
1.  Choose Go > "Connect to Server." 
2.  Enter the network address for the server in the Server Address text box and click Connect.  
The screen to the right shows a network address for SMB/CIFS (Windows) servers and shared 
folders.
