How to Connect to the HomePage Server for Uploading Files
Windows PC Users
PSYCH DEPT COMPUTERS: If your Windows computer is a member of the PSY domain, and you login using your Departmental-assigned name and password, then the HomePage Server will be automatically mounted for you and visible under "My Computer".
Those having problems connecting to network shares on a Windows server from a Windows XP machine should follow these steps to stop Windows from automatically using an inappropriate username/password combination.
Connecting from NON-Psy Computers (i.e. UT Library, SMF, other departments or buildings)
- In Window's Start Menu, go to My Computer
- In the Address Bar (where you would normally type an address) click on the Down Arrow at the right-hand side.
- Select My Network Places. (note that there are various other ways to get to this spot)
- Select Add a Network Place. (this brings up the "Add Network Place Wizard")
- Click Next, then select Chose Another Network Location, then click Next again.
- Enter the server address \\homepage.psy.utexas.edu\homepage then click Next.
- You will be prompted to enter your Psych Department User-name and Password.
- Optionally, give this connection a name of your choosing, then click Next.
- Click Finish.
Connecting from HOME with Cisco VPN Client:
If you try to use Windows to connect to Psychology File Servers such as HomePage from off-campus, the University's Network Firewall will block it. In order to get around the firewall you must install and run a program called "Cisco VPN Client".
