Mapping the W:/ Drive from Campus (Including the Dorms)

1) Right Click 'My Computer' and select 'Map Network Drive'
2) For 'Drive' select 'W:'
3) For 'Folder' type '\\cass1\deptdir' (without the apostrophes)
4) Make sure 'Reconnect at Login' is Selected
5) Click Finish - the W:/ Drive is now mapped to your computer!

*** If the site has you log in, and you use your username and password but it still won't work (i.e. it keeps asking you to log in over and over), chances are it's putting some weird capital letters before your username.  Just change those capital letters (probably CASS1) to UWEC (which tells it you're trying to log in using your UWEC username).  Keep the slash there, and just change the lettering to UWEC.

For information on mapping other drives, see the official University site here.

Accessing/Mapping the W:/ Drive from Off-Campus

There are two approaches.

For Quick Access:
1) go to https://cass1.uwec.edu/deptdir
2) log-in using your UWEC username and password
3) copy the URL of the new page from the address bar
4) click 'File' > 'Open'
5) paste the URL into the dialog box
6) check the 'Open as a Web Folder' checkbox
7) click 'OK' and it will work just like a normal folder
 

For Permanent Access (From a Home Computer Only)
You'll need to complete two steps: accessing the UWEC Virtual Private Network (VPN) and mapping the W:/ Drive

Step 1 - Accessing the VPN
1) Follow the instructions here: http://www.uwec.edu/help/WinXP/VPN-ms.htm
These instructions include pictures and images to help you along the way.  If you need help, please contact BJ at pickarbj@uwec.edu

Step 2 - Mapping the W:/Drive
2) After you have accessed the VPN, Right Click 'My Computer' and select 'Map Network Drive'
2) For 'Drive' select 'W:'
3) For 'Folder' type '\\cass1\deptdir' (without the apostrophes)
4) Make sure 'Reconnect at Login' is Selected
5) Click Finish - the W:/ Drive is now mapped to your computer!
Note: you may need to refresh the VPN connection if you restart your computer.  To do this, double-click the VPN connection icon on your desktop and click 'connect'.  Then you'll be able to access the W:/ drive again.  If you can't find the icon, simply follow the same instructions you used to set the connection up the first time, and things should work.  If you need help, contact BJ at pickarbj@uwec.edu
