Oct 9, 2015 11:30 AM in response to Marcus Muench1by MrHoffman,I don't have a Server.app 5 configuration handy to check where that data is being stored.
Here's how I'd look for this, though. Launch Terminal.app from Applications > Utilities and issue the following command:
find / -iname "OneOfYourFilenamesHere" -print
That'll take a while to run, but it'll find any file with the filename OneOfYourFilenamesHere anywhere on your file system. Use the double-quote character to quote the filename, to avoid any odd characters that might be present in the filename.
You may (will) get some "Not a directory" and "Permission denied" diagnostics. That's normal.
If the filename does not show up, then change to the following command:
sudo find / -iname "OneOfYourFilenamesHere" -print
You'll have to enter your administrative password for the sudo, and that might generate a one-time message about the use of sudo. The command will then run (again, this takes a while), and you should see rather fewer of the "Permission denied" errors, and the path to your file should show up in the output.

Oct 9, 2015 11:42 AM in response to MrHoffmanby Marcus Muench1,Ok, the files seem to be located under /Library/Server/ServerDocs/Personal Folders.localized/<User Full Name>/, so the iOS file sharing is iOS only, it is not possible for iOS devices to collaborate with OS X or Windows PCs in my network, this folder is not subject of the normal file server shares. This is disappointing.

Oct 9, 2015 11:56 AM in response to Marcus Muench1by Marcus Muench1,Well, activating "SMB" in the home folder access settings does the trick. I only had activated "AFP", this does not seem to be enough for Macs to find the share. With SMB activated Macs see a share "Personal Folders.localized" and you get access to the iOS home folders. But I did not check if the access rights are correct, it seems to me that I can access all home folders, not only mine.

Jun 5, 2016 7:21 PM in response to Marcus Muench1by Mac Dan,SMB seems to be the new universal secure/fast connection. AFP is now specific to Time Machine.
I've been doing the opposite, taking normal/smb shares and getting them to work on ios.
