Windows Network Drive


You can access your home and project directories by mounting \\itet-stor.ee.ethz.ch\username as a network drive in Windows. In this example, we will make \\itet-stor.ee.ethz.ch\pmuster available under the drive letter S.

If you do this from outside ETH, you need to establish a VPN connection first.

Click on the computer icon ("This PC") on the Windows desktop, then click on the 'Map network drive' button from the upper ribbon bar of the opened folder window:

In the dialog box that appears, choose the drive letter you want to use for this mapping: netdrive02.png

The Address to your folder is \\itet-stor.ee.ethz.ch\YOUR-USERNAME. Im this example we chose pmuster as the username. Replace pmuster with your own ETH username (login name). Activate the checkbox "Connect using different credentials" and if you desire it, set "Reconnect at logon" to make the network drive mapping persistent between computer reboots. Thn click the "Finish" button.

A new dialog box opens to enter a password:

Instead of entering a password, click "More choices", then click "Use a different account". The window looks now as follows:

As username, enter d\YOUR-USERNAME, and as password, use your ETH password. When done, click on OK. You can now access your personal itet-stor share in Windows Explorer under the chosen drive letter ("S:" in this example).
