SMB/SAMBA

Windows

First you will need to get your storage address and credentials from your account in our members area. Then you have many options of accessing your storage over SMB.

For the following examples we will assume the following:

  • Storage Address: mystorage.cs.esgr.in
  • Username: user1234
  • Password: WMacuuvnnxaKuiwBTrn2

File Explorer

  • Open an instance of File Explorer from your desktop or start menu
  • Click on the Computer Tab to make it active
  • Click on Map Network Drive
  • Select the Drive Letter you would like to use
  • in Folder type:
  • \\mystorage.cs.esgr.in\backup
  • If you want the drive to reconnect everytime you restart Windows Select Reconnect at sign-in
  • Click on Connect using different credentials
  • Click on Finish

Windows will ask you for your credentials (Username and Password) and after you enter them correctly it will open your cloud storage in File Explorer.

Command Line

In a console that has administrative permissions:

  • mklink /D C:\%userprofile%\MyStorageFolder \\mystorage.cs.esgr.in\backup

This will mount the cloud storage in a folder called MyStorageFolder inside your user profile.
