Accessing UVM's Network Storage

WWW Browser

You can also use a web browser on any Internet connected computer to access your Zoo or Active Directory files. Note that such access in the case of Active Directory is read-only, you cannot upload or modify files already uploaded.

Zoo

Note that there is a bug in the PHP processing software installed on Zoo that can sometimes prevent a web browser from displaying anything when you've connected to your Zoo space using the instructions below. The issue is that the PHP process hangs when you have exactly 32, or 64, or 128, etc objects in the directory you are trying to display. If this happens to you, log onto your account using SSH SFTP or Fetch and either move, delete or add one file or directory in order to push the total over or under one of these "magic" numbers.

  1. Start any web browser such as Internet Explorer, Mozilla, Mozilla Firefox or Apple Safari.
  2. In the Location field, enter the following URL:
    https://www.uvm.edu/files
    (NOTE that this is a secure site and thus you have to enter https, not just http)
    and press Enter or Return.
  3. The browser will request your UVM netID and password:
    Web Zoo Login
    Enter your UVM netID and password, then click Ok.
  4. The following window will appear:
    Web Zoo Screen
    You may navigate through your space, create directories, upload, download and delete files using the Action icons to the right and the fields at the bottom of the screen.
CAMPUS Active Directory
  1. Start any web browser such as Internet Explorer, Mozilla, Mozilla Firefox or Apple Safari.
  2. In the Location field, enter the following URL:
    https://webfiles.uvm.edu/
    (NOTE that this is a secure site and thus you have to enter https, not just http)
  3. Then press Enter or Return. The browser will request your UVM netID and password:
    Web AD Login
    Enter your UVM netID and password, then click OK.
  4. The following window will appear:
    Web AD Screen
