OVERVIEW:
SSRL has shared folders available on SLAC servers.

These folders are available from SSRL or from offsite.

Some SSRL Group folders and Staff Home Direct orie are present on these servers.
 

When logging on with a SLAC Windows account, SSRL Group folders appear at:

V:\SSRL

When logging on with a SLAC Windows account, staff will have their Home Directory at:

Z:

To see these folders when logging on with an SSRL account or when offsite, you'll need to map the shares using your SLAC account.

Scripts are available to automate these mappings.

Go to the corresponding folder under Q:\Groups.

Q:\Groups

Double click on "Get Foldername.bat"

The script will connect to the SLAC server with your SLAC Windows account.

It will expect that your SLAC username is the same as your SSRL username.
If your SLAC password is different from your SSRL account, then you will be prompted for a password.

If your accounts are spelled diffe rently, you can map the folder manually.
 
 

HOME DIRECTORY MAPPING:
