Mapping a Drive
• To map a drive to a network file directory in Windows you must be on a Microsoft local area network, which they refer to as a domain.
• If you are not physically connected to the USF network, you can use a virtual private network (VPN) connection.– You can download VPN software from USF IT:
http://vpn.usf.edu
• If you don't have the URL handy just google USF VPN
