1. Accessing Barney Off-Campus How can I get my H: files when I am not on the GU network? Business 111 Edward Mitchell Fall 2006

2. About Barney • Barney is the name given to a “Server” computer at Gonzaga. • It’s full name is barney.gonzaga.edu • Inside the GU network, we can just use “barney” • Your H: files (in the lab) are actually stored on Barney

3. How does this work? • When you log in to the GU network with your username/password, your computer automatically links the disk volume letter “H:” to your personal file storage space on Barney.

4. Barney Can be Accessed Remotely • You can also access your personal files on Barney by using a “File Transfer Protocol” program • This is also known as “FTP” • A command-line version of FTP is built-in to Windows, Mac OS X and Linux operating systems

5. Command-line vs GUI? • The command line is cumbersome to use so we will not even go there … • However, you may find information on using FTP as a command line option at GU and elsewhere on the Internet • The GUI versions are much easier to use

6. FTP Basics • To connect to a file server using FTP you will need: • 1. An “FTP” program to manage the file transfer • 2. The name of the remote server (in our case barney.gonzaga.edu) • 3. The remote server is sometimes called the “host”

7. FTP Basics • The user name is your regular GU log in name. • A password. The password is your regular GU log in password. • With this information, you can proceed to run an FTP file transfer program.

8. Windows – Mac OS X • There are two popular Windows programs for accessing your files using FTP:1. WS_FTP95 LE2. FileZilla • For Mac OS X, we will use “Cyberduck”

9. WS_FTP95 LE • WS_FTP95 LE is installed on the GU lab computers • But WS_FTP95 LE is no longer officially available. • (Unofficially, you can find it with Google and install on your Windows-based PC • It was designed for Windows 95 but does work on Windows XP

10. WS_FTP95 LE • If you wish, you can experiment with WS_FTP95 on the lab computers (or find and install on your own computer) • An online tutorial to WS_FTP95 is available here http://tutorial.ftpplanet.com/LE/

11. FileZilla • FileZilla is a free program • The funny name comes from the Internet browser known as “Mozilla”, which is the program that runs the Firefox browser • First, download FileZilla …

12. Downloading FileZilla • Go here: http://filezilla.sourceforge.net/ • And click on Download at upper left • Choose “Filezilla” -DO NOT choose the Filezilla Server on the download page.

13. Choose FileZilla

14. Mac OS X Cyberduck • Go to http://cyberduck.ch/ • And download the program (just below the download item is an option download a smaller, English-language only version) • We will come back to Cyberduck after covering the Windows FTP programs

15. Install FileZilla • After downloading the program to your computer, you must then use Windows Explorer to find the file (put it on the desktop for ease of access) • Double-click the install program to install FileZilla on your computer. • It will likely create an icon on your desktop as well as add itself to your Program Files menu.

29. Once you have secure ftp.pdf • Once you have secure ftp.pdf, using Windows Explorer, open the file by double-clicking on it. • The file should open in Adobe Acrobat Reader – the standard program for reading PDF files (note: Mac OS X will open in Preview)
