Hello, sorry if I am asking something very simple but I forgot how to do it (I am quite sure I did in the past).
I would like to have an alias on my desktop which link to a NAS. I don't want to link a specific folder but the server itself (even through IP): something equal to windows \\192.168.0.100 i.e. and then having all the shared folders listed. How can I do that?

On the Desktop, press ⌘+K to open the Connect to Server panel. Enter the following variable by the n network numbers, and share name:
smb://192.168.n.n/share
or
smb://admin:pswd@192.168.n.n/share
or
afp://DiskStation._afpovertcp._tcp.local/share
Press the + button to add that remote server to your list of Favorite Servers. The next time you invoke this panel, you can choose that server from the list.
Also, once you have the address working through the Connect to Server panel, you can click and drag that favorites entry onto your Desktop as a .inetloc, or .afploc file that you can click as a shortcut to the server. It will open a small connection in progress dialog and may also prompt for an access password to that server.
