Access to the CSIF Server

Note that we have a new server, depending on where you saved your data you should either used the path to server share: \\taltos3.stanford.edu\home$\sunetid or \\soe-nas.stanford.edu\csif-lab\sunetid

  • To ftp into new server:
  1. Go to any explorer/browser window and change the address bar to ftp:\\taltos3.stanford.edu and hit Enter or ftp:\\soe-nas.stanford.edu\csif-lab.
  2. It should prompt you for your sunetid and password, use win\sunetid and sunetpassword to get through
  3. You should see your files in window.
  • To use windows to connect to server (and map the network drive):
  1. Right click on “My computer” and choose “Map network drive”
  2. Choose a drive letter (ie: T: )
  3. For Folder: field, type in \\taltos3.stanford.edu\home$\sunetid or \\soe-nas.stanford.edu\csif-lab\sunetid.
  4. Check the box for “Connect using different credentials”
  5. At the prompt, use “sunetid@win.stanford.edu” and your sunetpassword, check “Remember my credentials” then hit ok
  6. T: drive should now be connected to your account on the server.

*data can be accessed without mapping a drive as well. Simply type in \\taltos3.stanford.edu\home$\sunetid in address bar of the explorer window and answer the prompts as above.
