'''Users with sudo'''<br/>
For users with ''"sudo"'' rights on their PC, there is another option.<br/>
* First you'll have to login to "https://uwp.rug.nl" and go to ''"Tools & Utilities"''. Open ''"Explore Group Drive Y"''.
* In the newly opened explorer window, right click ''"Shared Storage (Y:)"'', select ''"Properties"'' and go to the ''"DFS"'' tab.
* In the ''"Referral list"'', look for the path that says ''"Active"'' is ''"Yes"'' and write down the first part of the path... ''"CL*-N*"''.


Now on your own system, create the directory where you want to mount your Y drive, e.g.:
Otherwise from with the university network you can use the smb protocol to access the Y:-drive.
mkdir /mnt/Y

In the following command, change the path to what you've written down and change the username to your p-number. Then you can mount your Y drive on your system.
    sudo mkdir -p /mnt/ydrive/
sudo mount -t cifs //CL*-N*.workspace.rug.nl/ydrive /mnt/Y --verbose -o username=p123456,workgroup=WORKSPACE,vers=2.1
    sudo mount -t smb3 //workspace.rug.nl/ydrive /mnt/ydrive/ -o user=<p-number>
To do this permanently add the following lines to your ''"/etc/fstab"'':

From outside the university you can use https://vlwp.rug.nl or https://uwp.rug.nl

When you use the LWP then your UWP Y: drive is available at /media/ydrive.

Otherwise from with the university network you can use the smb protocol to access the Y:-drive. 

   sudo mkdir -p /mnt/ydrive/
   sudo mount -t smb3 //workspace.rug.nl/ydrive /mnt/ydrive/ -o user=<p-number>

From outside the university you can use https://vlwp.rug.nl or https://uwp.rug.nl
