Client-Connection

After downloading and installing the AFS-Software you need to:

If the authentication was successful, you are able to access your data, by mapping a network drive:

  • Click: Start > Computer > Map network drive (in the tool-bar)
  • In the "Map Network Drive window" choose an available drive letter from the drop-down list and type the name of the folder to map.

The folder can be any (accessible) path starting with \\afs

Examles (the shortcut \\afs\kip is also possible):

  • for the top level view: \\afs\kip.uni-heidelberg.de
  • for your Home directory: \\afs\kip.uni-heidelberg.de\user\<USERNAME>


Click the "Reconnect at logon" checkbox if this network drive should be mapped permanently.

You can map multiple folders to different drive letters, in order to organize a quick and convenient file access.
