Shared Drive Mapping


 * What is a "shared drive" and what does it mean to "map" it?: A shared drive is a folder on a server at UNHM that has been set aside and configured to allow you access to Read and Write files too it.
 * To map a drive is a way of saying lets make a short cut to this drive. Much like all the icons on your desktop.


 * Be sure to connect to the UNHM VPN before trying to map the drive if you are at a remote location (not within the UNH network).

PC
To access file share on virtual servers:
 * Right-click on My Computer
 * Choose Map Network Drive
 * You can give it any Drive letter you want that is not currently in use e.g., Z:, V:, X: ...
 * Type: \\stem.unh.edu\share$ in the Folder box.

It will ask for user-name and password. Use your UNH user-name preceded by WILDCAT\ and password e.g.,.

IMPORTANT NOTE

 * 1) Use backslash "\" and NOT forward slash "/". 
 * 2) Make sure you log into the UNHM VPN or you will NOT be able to access your mapped drive outside UNH.

MAC

 * In the Finder, click on the Go menu, select Connect to Server.
 * Enter the address to where the resource is you wish to map. (i.e. smb://www.domain.com/foldername)

 * A new icon should appear on the Desktop. That is your mapped network drive.

It will ask for user-name and password. Use your UNH user-name preceded by WILDCAT\ and password e.g.,.

You will have an additional "staging" drive to map, a web root directory where the code base of a team's web application should be uploaded. See mailing list instructions.
