Publishing: Network File Share via Windows

In order to edit web files from your PC running Windows, you will want to create a shortcut on the desktop to your folders on the web server. The first step in this process is to navigate to the web server using your network neighborhood as follows:

  1. Select "Start -> Run" from your Windows start menu.
  2. Type "\\coyote" and press return.

Having found Evergreens Web Server, the next thing to do is navigate using the file window, to the directory containing your web space. For example, if the web page were located at http://academic.evergreen.edu/m/metzlerd, you would need to navigate to the m directory. Next, create a shortcut to the folder on your desktop using the following instructions.

  1. While simultaneously holding down both the Ctrl and Shift keys on your computer, drag your web folder onto the desktop. A small menu will appear listing a few choices.
  2. Select the Create Shortcut option.

You should now see a shortcut on your desktop to your web folders. Files may be dragged onto this folder at any time to publish data to that location. Alternatively users may want to map a network drive to the web server to allow direct saves to this location.
