Overview

This guide explains how to download software you ordered from the IT Shop (previously known as IDES or Stud-IDES).

Connecting to your IT Shop network share

  • To download your software you need to connect to your personal share from the IT Shop
  • It is important to include the "$" at the end of the paths mentioned below!
  • Access to the IT Shop is only possible from within the ETH network. If you're connecting from the outside you need to open a VPN connection to ETH before continuing

Windows

  • Open a connection with Explorer to the network share
    \\software.ethz.ch\<ETH user name>$

  • On a self-managed windows client make sure to connect with your ETH user name including the domain, as in "d\ETH user name"
  • Enter your ETH network password when prompted.

Linux

  • Apply the protocol configuration to raise the client protocol level.

  • See examples for Desktop File Managers and use the following server address:
    smb://software.ethz.ch/<ETH user name>$

  • If you have smbclient installed, run the following command to connect, you will be prompted for your ETH network password:
    smbclient -W d -U <ETH user name> -m SMB3 //software.ethz.ch/<ETH user name>$

Copying data

Windows

As you connected to a share, standard operations with Explorer are possible. Simply select folders to copy, press CTRL+C and paste them into the local folder of your choice.
