Questions/Details/FAQ

1. Q:  How do I access my H: drive?  How do I access my home folder? 

A:  After connecting to NetStorage through any of the above methods, you should view a folder called "Home@LINDEN" or "DriveH@<USERNAME>", where <username> is your network username.  Both of these folders refer to the same place. 

2. Q:  Is there any native/local support for Mac's? 

A:  Yes and No.  Mac OS X has support for natively accessing WebDAV servers, which is the technology that NetStorage uses to access the server.  However, we have not been able to make this work yet.  Theoretically, you should be able to go to "Go"->"Connect to Server", enter "https://gwia.pen.wisc.edu/oneNet/NetStorage/" and the connection should be made.  Unfortunately, it gives an error on the machines we've tested it on. 

There's another option as well called "Goliath".  You can download it from http://www.webdav.org/goliath/.  This program, also has problems, however.  There is no support of WebDAV from Novell.  Your best bet for connecting from a Mac is through a web browser.
