Info

When asked for a user name, University staff can use either mcs\<unikey> or shared\<unikey>. Replace <unikey> (replace the angle brackets too) with your unikey. If you are not a member of University staff, use shared\<unikey> as your username when connecting to RDS.

  • RDS can only be mapped as a network drive on-campus. If you are off-campus, connect to the University VPN before connecting to RDS.
  • Only one set of UniKey credentials can connect to RDS from one computer at one time. If you have connected to RDS using a different set of UniKey credentials (for example, if you are using a shared computer and someone else has left their RDS drive mapped), disconnect their network drive before mapping your RDS share.
