Students, faculty, and staff with a Mills account can save personal files on the 'myfiles' file server and work files on the 'millswork' file server.

Note: in ITS computer labs, your 'myfiles' storage space is already connected when you log into the computer. You can access it by opening 'Macintosh HD'--the server will be listed on the lefthand side of the window.

Connecting to Mills Servers

1.  If you are using a wireless computer or personal computer in your residence hall room, be sure to log in via Bluesocket first.

• Open Safari.
• Use your Mills username and password to log in at the Bluesocket interface.
• Once you are logged in, keep the Bluesocket browser window active, as you will need to log out using that window.
• When finished with network access, log out via the Bluesocket window.

Note: If there is no Bluesocket icon active, close all Safari windows and then reopen Safari. This should prompt a small Bluesocket window to come up displaying a Logout command.

2.  From the 'Go' menu, select 'Connect to Server.'

3.  In the window that opens, enter the appropriate server name in the 'Server Address:' field:

• smb://myfiles.mills.edu to connect to your myfiles server space (personal space for students, faculty, and staff)
• smb://millswork.mills.edu to connect to your millswork server space (storage space for Mills business files for faculty, staff, and student workers)

To add this server to your list of 'Favorite Servers,' click the '+' icon to the right of the 'Server Address:' field.
