Niels,
you have to create a server name mapping.
Go to http://<yourserver>/_layouts/1033/SearchSettings.aspx
in the 1st section: General Content Settings and Indexing Status
you'll see a server name mappings link. That were you can do it.
Don't forget to reindex your content source after making the changes.

/Tony.

Hi Chris,
How can I expose the \\servername\share as an
http://servername/location

For example,
Address in index: \\servername\share
Address in search results: ???

Please help.

>Tony was correct, but didn't explain completely:

>What needs to be done first is to expose the

\\servername\share as an http://servername/location.  
Then, the mapping will work.  This is the only way to make
these files available externally.

Jonas,

You need to have a web server installed on the server where the network
share is. Then create a virtual directory on that web server pointing to
the same location (shared folder).
You don't need to have the same name for the virtual directory and the
shared folder.
The drawback of that configuration is that you will have to expose 2
servers if you have SPS configured for an extranet access.
An alternate solution is to have the web server on the SPS server
pointing to that shared folder. In that case, make sure that newly
created virtual directory is not managed by SPS.

/Tony.
