 ======= Connect to your home directory as a network drive =======
-It is only possible to gain access to a home directory of a student account or to use other services with a PC within the university network, e. g. to have access to certain web pages. To enter the university network from outside you can either establish a browser-supported VPN connection [[http://webvpn.gwdg.de|here]] or use the VPN client, which you also use to establish an encrypted connection when using the Wi-Fi GoeMobile.
+<WRAP center round info 60%>
+You can only access your home directory from a PC that is inside the universities network (for example eduroam). If you want to access your files from "outside" you'll first need to establish a **VPN connection**. More on that can be found at [[en:support:wlan:vpn|VPN]]

+===== Network Drive on Windows =====
-==== 1.) Download und Installation of the VPN client ====
+  - Open a new window in File Explorer (e.g. win + E)
+  - right-click on "Network" and select "Map network drive..." \\ {{:en:support:account:studit-netzlaufwerk-1.jpg?nolink&400|}}
-If you use the VPN client your internet connection is tunneled. That is to say, your PC receives a IP address from the university network. With the VPN connection you can use all these services which would not be possible without a VPN connection.
+  - in the new window choose an unoccupied drive letter and enter the following address (substituting "user.name" with your actual student username): \\ \\ug-uyst-fs.student.uni-goettingen.de\home\users\user.name  \\
+  - make sure to tick "Connect using different credentials" \\ {{:en:support:account:studit-netzlaufwerk-3.jpg?nolink&400|}}
-It is very easy to install the VPN client:
+  - After clicking "Finish" enter "ug-student\user.name" (again substituting "user.name" with your actual student username) as the username and your student password in the new window \\ {{:en:support:account:studit-netzlaufwerk-4.jpg?nolink&400|}}
+  - A new window will open, showing your familiar home directory
-  - Go to http://vpn.gwdg.de.
-  - Log in with your university email-address and your password
-  - Now follow the instructions on the screen. Normally the program installs automatically.
-  - When starting the AnyConnect client, enter vpn.gwdg.de for the connection and log in with your university email-address and password.
-  - After that, a connection should be established. After successful connection the client minimises itself to a padlock icon.
-===== Establish a connection to network drive =====
-Now go to "My Computer" on your PC (start → My Computer). In the Tools menu, click on "Map network drive...".

-A new window opens where you have to enter your user ID and your password. Please put a ug-student\ in front of your user name. Click OK.
-{{:doku:aus_sharepoint:homeverzeichnis_22.png|}}
-Now a common Windows Explorer page opens which displays your home directory. You can find your saved data in the displayed folders, that is to say in these folders of your home directory where you have once saved your data (Desktop, Eigene Dateien, Eigene Bilder etc.). Now you can work with your files in the same way as you would with your data saved on your computer. In other words, it is possible to open, create, copy or edit files within your home directory.
