RN312 Finder search

OS 6.8 claims to allow Mac Finder to search readynas over SMB, but I have never been able to get this to work.  I have enhance Mac OS enabled but Finder search doesn't bring anything up.  Is there some way to get this working that I am missing??

    The Enhance Mac OS option is useful if you have Macs on your network but it's not the option to toggle File Search.

     

    Go to System > Settings > Services and enable File Search. It will take some time to do the initial indexing of the NAS especially if you have a lot of files so be patient.
