Users unable to use Finder on MAC for Drobo hosted files

Hello.

The Drobo B1200i is connected to the SAN Vlan and is using a MAC Mini Server as the host.

Users have complained that they are unable to use Finder to search files on the network drives that are being stored by the MAC Mini Server/Drobo.

Drobo has informed us to index each users computer for the network drive.

Is there anything else that can be done to allow users to use Finder to search for files being hosted on the Drobo? They do not like using the 3rd party app EasyFind as it does not allow them to find files from within the Applications they are using.
