The Other Side
Having period flashbacks here.
For those of us on the Mac side of things, mid to late 90's networking brought us the wonders of Appleshare, the glory of Open Transport and if you wanted to pollute the network with Windows then of course you needed Dave. Not a bloke called Dave, there really was SMB networking software called Dave.
Functionality for all this was of course at times optional.
Extension Manager was your best and only friend.
