Getting Started

To get started using your account on www.web.virginia.edu, you will need to complete the following steps.

Changing Your Password

New ESERVICES user must change their password BEFORE logging on to www.web.virginia.edu for the first time. New users can change their password via a web page at: http://premium.itc.virginia.edu/server/Passwordinfo.htm.

ESERVICES customers who requested and received a www.web.virginia.edu account will not need to change their password, as their accounts were already active. If for any reason an ESERVICES customer needs to change their password, they can still use the link above.

Mapping Network Drives

1. From the Start menu, select Programs - Windows Explorer.
2. From the Tools Menu, select Map Network Drive.

Step 2

   

 

3. From the Drive section, select a drive not currently in use, or accept the default drive.  

Steps 3-4

4. For the Path, type:
\\es-web1.eservices.virginia.edu\mst3k$
where mst3k is replaced with your website name ending with the "$".
 
 
For Steps 3-4 in NT/2000: If you are in a domain other than ESERVICES, or use an id that is different than your web server id you need to select the option to log in as a different user, and when you specify that user you need to explicitly specify the domain as web.
W2K login as different user

5. If prompted, supply your username and password.
Note: In the preceeding picture \\es-web1 is used for the name of the server. If you encounter difficulties, please try: \\es-web1.eservices.virginia.edu. Additionally, if you encounter problems with the username ESERVICES\mst3k, try es-dc1\mst3k.

6. You will then see a window that displays the contents of your directory.
 
Note: Step 7 only needs to be completed if you need to access a database directory.
7. Repeat steps 1 - 6, but map the next available drive letter (that is not already in use) to:
\\es-web1.eservices.virginia.edu\mst3kdb$
where mst3k is your website name ending with the "db$".
 

Step 7

     
If you encounter difficulties connecting to the server, try adding eservices.virginia.edu to the domain suffix search list in your TCP/IP settings. Also, if you do not have WINS set up, you can add 128.143.3.199 and 128.143.22.189 to your list of WINS servers.
