 +===== Manual network drive connection =====
 +If your computer is not connected to Active Directory, you can map a network drive manually.
 +
 +Open My Computer (you can hold down **Windows key** and type **'E'**). From the menu "**Tools**" choose "**Map Network Drive...**". Alternatively you can right click on **This PC**.
 +{{ : en:services:general_services:software_and_license_management:mscampus:bild_3.png?300 | }}
 +
 +In the "**Map Network Drive**" dialogue box, select a Drive letter (normally ''P:'' is used for personal and ''W:'' is used for common shared folder). Shared folders can be mapped unless permissions forbid it.
 +
 +To establish connection, type the path for the server and shared resource in the **Folder** box. Depending on which shared folder you wish to connect to, type in one of the following lines:  
 +
 +**        Home directory (''P:'' drive)**
 +            MPG
 +            \\winfs-mpg.top.gwdg.de\userid$
 +            
 +            Göttingen University
 +            \\winfs-uni.top.gwdg.de\userid$
 +            
 +            GWDG
 +            \\winfs-gwd.top.gwdg.de\userid$
 +            
 +            Others
 +            \\winfs-son.top.gwdg.de\userid$
 +
 +\\
 +**        Group directory (''W:'' drive)**
 +            \\winfs-all.top.gwdg.de\share_$
