HTML link to directory in a Samba share, that works on Internet Explorer 7/8

windows internet-explorer samba smb cifs

The correct syntax for file:// links is:

file:///path/on/local/computerfile://server/share/folder

So in your case try file://server/Share2/folder3

windows internet-explorer samba smb cifs

Check if this is fixed by adding the share to trusted sites in IE.(Eg, internet options security, trusted sites)
