Hi Craig, 'FYI, I can get the Fileshare repository connector to work, but it is buggy and doesn’t do all that I need.'
We don't actually have a "Fileshare" repository connector, so I am not sure what you are talking about here. And if you have bugs to report, please do so. The paths that you use for windows shares depend on having a share actually published by your local system. Setting up a share of a specific folder on windows is not within the scope of advice I can really offer. But if you do not need document security, you can always use the File System Connector, which just reads files and does not go via windows shares.
