Connecting to the server

While using a local account on a Macintosh, there are times that you wish to connect to your folders on the file server. You can retrieve files that were put there when you were logged onto your district account; you can place files there for backup.

Connect to Server

1) While in the Finder (the main desktop), from the Go menu, select Connect to Server.
2) Enter smb://sofs02/home for the Server Address.
3) Click Connect

Authenticate with your district ID

Enter your district ID and password (the same as for your district e-mail)
Click Connect

Navigate to your folder

You should not have as many folders in your account as I do!

Open your Desktop, Documents, Pictures folders

and process as you see fit.
