Mapping to Shared Directories on MHMF computers
Introduction
Mapping a shared directory to an unused drive letter is not essential, but makes finding and copying to the directory faster and more convenient.
Open a command prompt box e.g. Start ---> Run type in cmd and press enter
Type in net use drive: \\computer\shared-directory /user:mhmicroscopy\username. e.g. net use z: \\minsky.med.unc.edu\slaney /user:mhmicroscopy\michelle
Note: replace drive: with an unassigned drive letter and username with your MHMF username. Also be careful to enter forward (/) and back (\) slashed correctly.
You will have to enter your password, which is case sensitive as usual.
Your done!
Removing the mapped drive letter:
net use drive: /delete
(Note that this just disconnects the drive letter from the contents and does not affect any files as long as transfers are not in progress.)
