Accessing Your Web Folder on the ED-W3 Server from Windows Machines

The COE server is in the UIUC workgroup. If you are working in the ICL or the computer you are using is in the UIUC workgroup, do the following:

  1. From the Start menu, choose Run.
  2. Enter the following path to your web folder: \\ed-w3\wwwroot\students\ your_NetID and hit OK.
  3. Log into the system by entering your UIUC NetID and active directory password.

The following is a universal way to access your student web folder:

  1. Launch Internet Explorer (Netscape won't work).
  2. From the File menu, choose Open.
  3. Important: check Open as Web Folder to turn on the option.
  4. Enter your Web Dav path: https://www-s.ed.uiuc.edu/students/your_NetID, as shown above. Hit OK.
  5. Log into the system by entering your UIUC NetID and active directory password.
  6. Your folder should now be displayed. At this point, you can open, drag and drop, delete, and rename files as you would do normally.
