    Accessing files over VPN

    EMU-owned computers running Windows may remember your network drives from a previous connection after connecting to the VPN.  If you are missing network drives, follow the instructions below to map them. Accessing network drives from a non-EMU owned computer will also require the following steps:

    1. Download the Windows drive mapping script.
    2. Double click the script to run it.
    3. Enter your Royal username and password, click "ok". When  the password prompt disappears your network drives will be available
