If you have started to use WesFiles on your own and would like us to run the migration script for you, please contact me or your academic computing manager. We are doing the migrations individually to insure that all individual needs are taken into consideration.

There is a WebDAV client for *nix systems called "Cadaver." You can download Cadaver here: http://www.webdav.org/cadaver/ You can see some documentation on the available commands at this location: http://linux.die.net/man/1/cadaver Cadaver allows you to get, put, move, and edit files, create directories, etc., but you will not be able to use it to set WesFiles permissions. The (m)put and (m)get commands fail if the resources you want to move include directories. You will not be able to connect to your files by any other protocol. ssh, sftp, etc. will not work.

If you use Windows, it's probably H: (or the drive you choose).

In the home folder, I see two usernames, sdevoto and cleidy. In the courses folder, I see Math122 and Econ316. In the labs folder I see many MB of things unrelated to me. I must admit I am a little bit mystified, and distracted by all of those other files. What is up? Stephen When I go to my root folder, I see many folders.
