Windows 8.1 - how to index and search a network or UNC folder?

Hi,

I have my documents on a network share. In Windows xp/7 I could add the share path to Windows Search and all documents and it's contents would be indexed thus simplifing searchs.

On Windows 8.1 what is the best way to acomplish this? Please note that making the files available offline is not an option.

thank you.
