    The web interface should work.

    You could also use FTP (http://aboutchromebook.com/tag/ftp-client/). Probably shouldn't use the net2ftp mechanism though.

    I don't own a chromebook, so I have no personal experience on this.

    I can acces "local ip\admin" if that is what you mean.
    But "\\nas-name\drive-name" does not work of course.
    Can see if FTP will work, I fear not, since Chrome OS only gives you the browser.

    That is not what I meant. I was thinking (a) enable http access to the shares via frontview and (b) use http://nasname/shares or https://nasname/sharename

    The link I included explains how to access with FTP:
    If you’re only looking to download files over FTP, Chrome itself can do this just fine. Just enter your FTP server’s details in the Omnibox like this:

    ftp://username:password@full_url_of_ftp_server/folder

    … or, for anonymous login, enter details like this:

    ftp://full_url_of_ftp_server/folder
