Connecting to Brunel Home (H) Drive (Mac OS X)

Note: by default, Macs don't remember previously used network shares when they are restarted. You can follow steps 1, 2 and 3 every time if you wish (the last used network share will be shown in step 2 so you don't have to type it in). Alternatively, by following step 4 you can get the network share to appear in Finder all the time.

Note - To map to your H drive from home or off campus you will first need to install and run the AnyConnect VPN service, found under "My Apps"
  1. Open a Finder window (the icon with the face). On the Go menu, choose Connect to Server.

  2. For Server Address, type in the path smb:<<Login for this information>>. Click Connect.

  3. When asked for your login, ensure registered user is selected. Type in <<Login for this information>>\<<Login for this information>>.

  4. You can create a shortcut to this shared drive in Places within Finder. With the mapped drive displayed, on the Go menu, choose Enclosing folder. Now click once on the folder that has your H drive files and then on the File menu, choose Add to Sidebar.
