Display pic in KB article that is stored on the kbox
I have copied a few JPGs to the Kbox client drop share \\kbox\clientdrop
I'd like to display those images within Knowledgebase articles but it doesnt seem possible. I'm not sure if this is a problem the Kbox has accessing its own shares or a limitation of markdown script, or user error!
Both the ways of displaying an image listed below work fine. But if I replace the address with that of a Kbox share it just doesnt display anything.

<img src=http://www.website.com/image.jpg />
Kbox samba locations that I've tried, UNC and file
\\kbox\clientdrop\image.jpg
file://///kbox/clientdrop/image.jpg

Hi RichB
Thanks that seems to work! Attach the picture to the article, hover over the link to get the path, then reference the picture by its new Kbox location to display it.
The location of attached JPG: http://wbc-kbox-1/packages/kb_attachments/2/test.jpg
Markdown syntax to display JPG: 
Thanks
