How to Connect to Servers in MacOS
- In Finder, Select Go --> Connect to Server (or Command-K, aka "Apple-K")
CGD Drives
Connect to the drives using your CIT username and password.
Description PATH CGD Home directory smb://nfs-h.cgd.ucar.edu/~username Personal Web Directory smb://nfs-w.cgd.ucar.edu/public_html/username Shared drive (everyone's home directory) smb://nfs-h.cgd.ucar.edu/shared Web-data smb://nfs-w.cgd.ucar.edu/web
Folders on U: Drive (CIT Domain)
If you want to connect to a directory that exists under the Windows CIT domain "U" drive, you can't just "connect to the U: Drive" like you do in Windows. You have to connect to the server that hosts the folder.
- On a Windows machine, find the folder to which you want to connect
- Right click on the folder and select Properties
- Click on the DFS tab
- Use the information under Path to create a smb mount on your
Mac.
For example, if the path in the DFS tab on Windows says:
\\atd-everest.atd.ucar.edu\atdudrive
Convert that to a samba mount for your Mac:
smb://atd-everest.atd.ucar.edu/atdudrive
*** Don't forget to convert Windows backslashes to Unix forward slashes *** - Log in using your CIT username and password
