I tried to focus on Windows clients for now.  I copied the full server 
location such as

\\csdrsrv03\Distributions\Public\Instruction

Then I added it to localmap.txt and the problem is that pmwiki 
considered it as a

(I put the plain txt file, testwiki.txt  in folder, "Instruction")

[file]:\\csdrsrv03\Distributions\Public\Instruction\testwiki.txt

Strangely, the link, 
\\csdrsrv03\Distributions\Public\Instruction\testwiki.txt does work in 
Outlook email.

Any ideas?
