File Server Details

Introduction

The College of Science provides a dedicated file server for staff and faculty file storage. The file server is accessible to Windows PCs and Macs running OSX. A personal file share with an initial quota of 10 GB has been created for each user. Why worry about data loss or availability? Let us take care of that for you.

Path to Personal File Share

Windows:

\\sci-files.win.csupomona.edu\<dept>\<fac or staff>\<username>

Example: \\sci-files.win.csupomona.edu\mat\fac\mlgreen

Mac OSX:

smb://sci-files.win.csupomona.edu/<dept>/<fac or staff>/<username>

Example: smb://sci-files.win.csupomona.edu/chm/fac/laalex

Each department or program within the college has its own file share:

\\sci-files.win.csupomona.edu\<dept>\

Where <dept> is one of the departments: bio, chm, cs, gsc, mat, or phy.

Folders in sci-files

Each department has four main directories:

common is an area available for all users within the department.
dept or dept_office is designed to hold any files relevant to the department office.
fac holds personal directories for faculty members.
staff holds personal directories for staff members.
Additional folders may be added upon request.

Please see individual instructions for Mac or PC on how to mount your file share.
