Accessing UBfs Using a Mapped Drive from Windows

Map a drive folder to UBfs shared location (e.g., MyFiles, Collab) on your Windows computer.

You must have an on-campus IP to access UBfs file space

Use Cisco Secure Client from off campus before you connect to UBfs space, or else connect to UBfs from on campus.

Mapping a Drive to UBfs

Depending on your computer's operating system:
- Windows 11: Open File Explorer from the taskbar or the Start menu. Select This PC from the left pane. On the File Explorer ribbon, select More (...) and select Map network drive.
- Windows 10: From the Start Menu, select the This PC tile. Select Map Network Drive from the Computer menu.
Use the drive letter pre-selected or choose an unmapped drive letter.
Enter the UBfs shared folder location for your drive map:  
- Myfiles space: \\itorg.ad.buffalo.edu\ubfs\myfiles\1st_letter_ubitname\2nd_letter_ubitname\UBITName (where UBITName is your UBITName). For example, if your UBITName is jdoe, you would enter: \\itorg.ad.buffalo.edu\ubfs\myfiles\j\d\jdoe.
- Collab Space: To map a drive to Collab space instead, follow the directions above but after \\...\ubfs\ map to collab share:
  \\itorg.ad.buffalo.edu\ubfs\collab.
Log in with AD\UBITName (AD\ followed by your UBITName) and your password
Your UBfs mapped folder should now appear.
