SAS keys are not currently supported for mounting. Ensure port 445 is open: SMB communicates over TCP port 445.

Remote drive mapping is designed to make working with files on the Rutgers central server systems (that is, on RCI and Eden) as convenient as possible. With remote drive mapping, File Transfer Protocol (FTP) software or any other special software isn't needed to access files. Once connected via an assigned drive letter, the files will be just as easy to change as if they were located on your own hard disk.
- A valid RCI or EDEN account.
- For access off-campus, the Cisco VPN software configured to connect to the Rutgers network. Documentation located at http://oit.rutgers.edu/vpn/
- A Samba password, which must first be obtained by clicking on the Samba Access link on the respective system's Webtools page below. The Samba password, separate from the RCI or Eden password, will be sent to the account owner's e-mail address. The same holds true for departmental accounts and student organization accounts
RCI:http://www.rci.rutgers.edu/webtools/
- The path to connect to the shared folders There are two possible Samba paths. The first is www, the public_html directory in which Web page files are kept. The second is homes which is the special directory on the account which users are allowed to access using Samba.
- Finally the name of the host (i.e. RCI or Eden) upon which the share will be located.
From the Mac OS X Toolbar click on the Go menu and select Connect to server
In the Server Address field. type in the appropriate path. The path will be entered in the following format: smb://system_name/share_name
For example, to mount the RCI_drive directory type:
Sonix usb camera 168. smb://rci.rutgers.edu/homes
or
smb://rci.rutgers.edu/www
to mount the public_html directory.
Click on connect after the address has been written
Click Connect to connect to the Samba directory. You will be prompted for your netid and your unique Samba password that was e-mailed to your RCI account
Files can now be moved, removed, and accessed as if the files were on the computer the user is using.
Hello,
I have recently been having trouble connectig to an SMB share on our netrwork.
When I try to connect to it (CMD+K), I normally enter the details of the share, then a dialogue box comes saying 'Connecting to SMB://...' and another dialogue bow comes up asking for the username and password.
However for some reason now it just hangs on the first dialogue box, perpetually saying 'Connecting to SMB://..' and the username and password box never appears.
I can ping the sever so it knows it is there, but I just can't connect to it as it gets stuck right before the bit where it asks me for the login details.
I thought it might be a glitch in a cache file or some kind of permissions problem and wondered if there was any way to coepltely reset how the machine conects to the netowrk, but I don't know how to do that. Does anyone have any ideas?
