- | 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.

- | ===== Access personal files from Windows ===== | ||
- | Window use the **CIFS** (aka **SMB**) to access file on remote server and don't understand **nfs** protocol. As with Apple OS we use a **gateway** that translate the first protocol in the second (pardon to the esperts, I'm trying to simplify a lot). Windows users have to connect to **lthiserv3.epfl.ch** after connecting his/hers laptop to the network and have to insert the credentials when asked by the system. | ||
- | <note warning> | ||
- | Not all the users are allowed to connect using the **SMB** protocol. You must ask for a permission to the System Administrator. | ||
