If you use a personal laptop running linux, you can use the remote mounting of your homedir by using the **nfs** protocol. In this case you can chose the manual mode or the autofs daemon. Only the allowed workstation will be able to connect to the server, so you must ask to the System Administrator the permission to use the connection.

- | Users of Os X Operating System can connect to his/hers homedir using the standard **afp** connection protocol developed by Apple or by using the **nfs** protocol. Due to the difficulty to have a full and simple support for **nfs** connection on the client side, we preferred to use the native **afp** protocol, more manageable by the users. This protocol isn't directly supported by our file server, but we have a server that act as gateway from **afp** to **nfs** protocol, so the access to the files is simplified at maximum. Just connect to the server **lthiserv3.epfl.ch** | + | Users of Os X Operating System can connect to his/hers homedir using the standard **afp** connection protocol developed by Apple. Just connect to the server **melpomene.epfl.ch** using the Command-K key combination. If the initial connection is successfull (you must be allowed to use the network, before that) the system will ask for your network login credentials. After inserting these, you can select the directory to mount (your homedir is your login name, web is the web space disc, scratch is the scratch disc). Once mounted you can access your files directly from the Os X applications. |
