How do I access my CS Department Unix home directory files from a Macintosh?

0

Using the Apple Finder “Go” list, select “Connect to Server” and enter one of the following as the Server Address: smb://smb.cs.colostate.edu -or- afp://afp.cs.colostate.edu The first option uses an SMB connection (via samba). You will need to authenticate using your CS-WIN windows domain password This is probably the preferred method. The second option uses an AppleTalk connection (via netatalk), with your unix password. Occasionally, netatalk can become confused by obsolete or corrupted metadata. To clear out these stale metatdata files, run the script ~info/mac/clearMacMetaData in your home directory. This script may be run from any of the CS Department Linux machines. Updated metadata files will be created the next time you mount your CS Department Unix account from a mac through netatalk.
