How To Connect To Engram Windows Drive from Windows
These instructions are for Windows 7 but they should be similar for Windows 10 and other versions.
1) Open Windows Explorer and click on the “Map network drive” tab.
Alternatively, right-click on “Computer” and select “Map network drive”.
2) In the pop-up window, select a drive letter (e.g., Z:, Y:, …).
Type in the network share path in the “Folder” box and replace "testshare" in the following example with the name of your network share.
Example: \\labshare-smb.engram.rc.zi.columbia.edu\testshare
Check “Connect using different credentials” checkbox.
Optionally, check “Reconnect at logon” checkbox if you want to automatically connect to the share at logon.
Click “Finish”.
3) In the pop-up login window, enter your username and password. Your username will be “adcu\<your_UNI>” and the password will be your UNI password.
Optionally, check “Remember my credentials” checkbox.
Click “OK”
4) The share will appear as a network drive with the letter selected in Step 2. You can now create folders, copy files to and from this drive, etc.
You can repeat steps 1-4 to mount other shares.
Disconnect from SMB share
