Mapping a network drive on the E&H network is extremely helpful when you have
to repeatedly collect data from the same network location. In order to map
a network drive you will need to be logged into the college network. See Network Login Instructions for more details on configuring access.
There are two ways to map a network drive. The first way assumes you
know the server name and folder name of the mapped location. The second
lets you search for the server and folder.
Mapping a Drive By Name
- Right -click on Network Neighborhood (or My Network Places) and
select Map Network Drive.
- Enter the path of the folder to be mapped, i.e., //EHCPDC/prof_share
- Select a drive letter that is not currently in use.
- Click OK.
Mapping a Drive By Searching
Note: You will still need to know where the folder is located on the
network.
- Double-click on Network Neighborhood (or My Network Places)
- Select Entire Network
- Select Microsoft Windows Network
- Select EHC
- Double-click on the server where the folder is located, i.e. EHCPDC
- Locate the folder to be mapped, i.e., prof_share
- Right-click on the folder and select Map Network Drive
- Select a drive letter that is not currently in use.
- Click OK.
