As of February 12th, 2008 Saturn no longer accepts file sharing connections from Macs (AFP) and from PCs (SMB). Whenever you were using saturn.med.nyu.edu or saturn.skb.med.nyu.edu just use jupiter.med.nyu.edu or jupiter.skb.med.nyu.edu instead. We will try to replace all instances of saturn with jupiter on our help pages, but it may take some time, or we may miss a few. So as a rule of a thumb, whenever connecting to your home directory, lab space, admin space, Public Stuff, Office or Adobe software distributions always use jupiter from now on. Use the same username and password: jupiter is saturn's twin:)
Open
the Chooser and select the AppleShare
icon by clicking once on it.
Click
on the large button in the lower right corner named Server
IP Address.
You don't need to select Skirball 3rd floor AppleTalk
Zone in the lower window.
NOTE:
If there is no Server IP Address... button in your
Chooser you may be running an outdated version
of MacOS.
This
brings up a window prompting you to enter the server address...
In
that window simply type the server's name: jupiter.med.nyu.edu
or titan.skb.med.nyu edu and click the Connect
button.
Simply typing saturn or titan should work if your networking settings
are correct. Otherwise type the full name as shown above.
NOTE:
If you're using a dialup connection you can also log into Saturn.
First, before you dial in, open your AppleTalk control panel and
select Remote Only from the Connect via: pop-up menu on the top.
Close it and save changes when asked.
This
will bring up the login window. Type your username and your password
in the appropriate boxes and click Connect
NOTE:
This is your saturn account username an password - the same you
use to check your @saturn e-mail. It is usually your last name
in lowercase. Do not use your Saturn username for Titan, both
username and password for Titan are simply Titan (note capitalization!).
After
logging on, you will be presented with several choices, each representing
a volume on the server (a volume is approximately the same thing
as a hard drive): 7 Day Parking (temporary storage automatically
emptied weekly), Public Stuff, DMC, and a user
volume as well as some other volumes you may have been given
access to.
Each volume may be accessed (or "mounted") by double-clicking
on its name. Multiple volumes may be selected by shift-clicking
each name and then clicking the OK button. Do not
check the little boxes to the right of the volume names!
The example on the right shows Saturn login window. If you log
in to Titan you will see different volumes including Park Till
5am, Temporary Presentations, makefujix and makeslides. Refer
to DMC
page to learn how to use the other DMC related directories.
You can use Park Till 5am volume on Titan for
moving files around the network but keep in mind that is irreversibly
erased every
morning at 5am, and there is no backup! You can use Temporary_Presentations
to keep small files overnight but it gets periodically erased
as well.
The
volumes you have selected now appear on the desktop of your Macintosh
computer, along with your local hard drive:
