8 Computer Science & Informatics: <strong>Introductory</strong> <strong>Note</strong> <strong>832</strong><br />
Now you can create local directory and mount your filespace on one of our gateway<br />
servers into it. The format is:<br />
mount -t davfs -o uid=myname https://SSS.cs.cf.ac.uk/ mountpoint<br />
In this, myname is your username on your own PC or laptop, and SSS is one of the<br />
School’s gateway server. For example, to connect to your Novell H: drive:<br />
mkdir ˜/h<br />
sudo mount -t davfs -o uid=myname https://driveh.cs.cf.ac.uk/ ˜/h<br />
You will be prompted for your username and password.<br />
Now the files can be accessed through directory h.<br />
To disconnect from the server, use umount to unmount the directory:<br />
sudo umount ˜/h<br />
1.7 Filezilla<br />
Filezilla is a portable STFP application available on all platforms. It gives you a window<br />
divided vertically such that the left-hand panel is a view of the local file system, while<br />
the right-hand panel is a view of the remote file system. You can drag and drop files<br />
between the two.<br />
If you prefer to use Filezilla, it can be downloaded from http://filezilla-project.org/.
