Under Windows the HOME directory of FLOW and HERO can be mount as network drive by using 

 \\cifs.storage.hpc.uni-oldenburg.de\hpc_<working_group>_home

as address. The name <working_group> has to be replaced to the users working group name on FLOW and HERE (see table below). After that username and password of FLOW and HERO will be requested to connect this share.


Linux

Under Linux the HOME directory of FLOW and HERO can be mount by the command 

 sudo mount -t cifs -o workgroup=W2KROOT,username=<user>,file_mode=0600,dir_mode=0700,uid=<linux_username>,gid=<linux_group>  //cifs.storage.hpc.uni-oldenburg.de/hpc_<working_group>_home    <mount_point>

where <user> has to be replaced by the username on FLOW and HERO. The name <working_group> has to be replaced to the users working group name on FLOW and HERE (see table below). The place holder <mount_point> has to be replaced by an empty valid directory on your Linux. The variables <linux_username> and <linux_group> has to be replaced to the user and group name under linux if the user and the group ID/name is different to the Windows user and group ID.

Note:

  • This command needs root permissions. Therefore the sudo command before the mount command.
  • On Ubuntu 12.04LTS the package 'smbfs' and 'smbclient' has to be installed by sudo apt-get install smbfs. For other Linux distribution please show in you package manager
