Adding Media - Plex Shares (FreeNas + Plex)

Hi there

I have a Plex Server running on Windows 10 with a ton of movies, series, music, photos etc… I have installed a New Plex Server on FreeNas.

Now my problem is that on the Windows machine to add a Folder to the library - I just at the UNC path eg. “\10.0.0.3\Movies”, “\10.0.0.3\Series” (Seagate Black Armour Nas) and so on… have another Seagate Nas with the necessary shares etc, same goes for a HP MicroServer running Windows 10 with Shares for Movies, Series etc. All of theses are linked to my current Windows based Plex Server, no problems with detecting and adding them to my libraries.

Now I tried to add the media folders in Plex on FreeNas and it does not recognize any of my “external” shares that lives on other NAS / Server devices. How can I get the Plex on FreeNas to recognize the “external” shares on other devices than those on the FreeNas itself?
