    Hey

    I have a 90% completed assignment due for Friday, saved in my H drive. Obviously with snow and stuff, I need to finish at home rather than in college tomorrow.

    One used to be able to get into there via a link in UCD connect, but I just tried it and that link isn't working for me.

    Anyone able to offer advice?

    That link worked for me a few days ago. My only guess is it mightn't work at this time in the morning

    I found that connection to be unreliable at times this semester

    It's working now. I would definitely expect IT Services to make sure it works reliably during the campus closure at least during the daytime and evening. In the early hours of the morning, I'd expect outages for backups or other maintenance.

    Death has this much to be said for it:
    You don’t have to get out of bed for it.
    Wherever you happen to be
    They bring it to you—free.

    If using IE 8 it needs compatibility view enabled (button to right hand side of address bar)

    Also it launches in a new window so pop ups must be allowed

    Its a shame the whole range of IT facilities that are available to students isn't known. There is a great deal of stuff there. A lot of them are fairly hard to find but the are worth looking for.
