Personal Storage Space (~shared)

Each user has a personal file space, accessible via network shares on the workstations, the application servers and computing servers, the classrooms, and personal virtual machines.

• This personal space is
  • 100GB for staff
  • 5GB for students
  • manageable via ownCloud
  • your personal web pages can be managed from the public_html directory in this share
  • mounted automatically on the application servers and computing servers, the classrooms, and personal virtual machines
    • at ~/shared (/home/local.isima.fr/<user>/shared) on UNIX and Mac
    • at P:\\ on Windows

    Warning: By default, you work in the machine's home directory. Remember to copy your practical work, reports, code, etc. to your shared space.

These shares can be accessed from your workstation provided you are connected to the network (i.e., in your office or via the VPN) and have the necessary credentials.

Authentication always uses your UCA account.

To access your storage space from a workstation, follow the procedure for your operating system:

• Windows
• Mac
• Linux

Windows Installation

For Windows workstations in the 'LOCAL' domain

By default, all Windows workstations are in the LOCAL domain (unless specifically requested otherwise).

Quick method

All Windows computers in the domain receive a GPO that mounts the correct network drives.

If you do not see the "P:" (Perso) network drive appear, type gpupdate in the Windows search bar. This will restart the GPO within a few seconds and you will find the Perso drive for students or teachers (and administrative drives for those who are entitled to them).

Complete method

Open Windows Explorer.

Right-click on Computer and select "Map network drive".

Select the letter "P" for this drive, and for the folder, enter \\dirs.local.isima.fr\<your_uca_login>.

Check the box "Reconnect at sign-in" and VALIDATE by clicking "Finish".

For workstations outside the domain (same procedure as above, only authentication changes)

Same as above, with a small variation... at the question (see screenshot above) "Which network folder do you want to connect to?"

Also check "Connect using different credentials".

As the login, you must specify the domain name in the following format:

Login_UCA@local.isima.fr

Password

Mac OS X Installation

To mount a network drive from a GNU/Linux system, the easiest way is to use the Samba protocol.

You will need to provide the server you want to connect to, the path to the share, your ENT username, and your password.

The procedure is similar whether you are accessing administrative shares or your personal directory.

Open Finder, in the menu bar click Go then Connect to Server...

Enter this address:

Click the "+" to save the server connection.

Remember to check "Add this password to my keychain".

GNU/Linux Installation

To mount a network drive from a GNU/Linux system, the easiest way is to use the Samba protocol.

You will need to provide the server you want to connect to, the path to the share, your ENT username, and your password.

The procedure is similar whether you are accessing administrative shares or your personal directory.

The procedure is described for several file managers. See below.

Use the URI (server address): smb://dirs.local.isima.fr/<ENT_username>. Username: username@local.isima.fr [ where username is your ENT username ] Password: [ your ENT password ]

On Dolphin (KDE - Kubuntu) - Default on new machines and in classrooms

On GNOME Files / Nautilus (GNOME Shell - Ubuntu)

Open the file manager and click "Connect to Server".

In the server address, type smb://dirs.local.isima.fr/<username> replacing <username> with your username (UCA login).

• In the next window, indicate that you are connecting as a "Registered user".
• Then enter your UCA ID as UCA@local.isima.fr
• The domain is LOCAL
• Then enter your UCA password
• Finally, select "Remember forever"

Once the connection is established, select your drive in the file manager, right-click, and click "Add to bookmarks".

On Nemo (Cinnamon - Linux Mint)

Here the URI is split between the server address and the folder to reach. For example:

smb://dirs.local.isima.fr/vimazeno gives:

Server: dirs.local.isima.fr Folder: /vimazeno

With SmbClient

For command-line aficionados, use smbclient

$ sudo apt install smbclient
$ smbclient -U borlonjo@local.isima.fr //dirs.local.isima.fr/borlonjo

If you have a Kerberos ticket

smbclient -k //dirs.local.isima.fr/borlonjo
