Working From Home
To assist NDSU staff and faculty in working from home, here is some information on NDSU resources currently available for your use:
File Services
Internet-based options such as OneDrive and other NDSU File Services allow us to safely store, share and access data from home or anywhere else you have an internet connection.
OneDrive (Cloud Storage)
- OneDrive Client Setup
- Log into Office 365 Online (web version of Outlook, OneDrive, Word, etc...)
- Sharing folders in OneDrive
- Additional OneDrive Information
Additional NDSU File Services
- Connecting to Central File Services (U:, S: X: Drives) from off-campus
- Google Drive (Google Apps for Education)
- Secure File Transfer
Remote Desktop Connections
If you have a desktop in your office, connecting remotely using Microsoft's Remote Desktop tool (RDP) is another option. Using this, you should be able to connect from your home computer or a loaner notebook and control your work desktop. You may need to authenticate using DUO to connect (same thing you use when logging into your NDSU webmail).
Adding Accounts
If you are planning to use a "loaner" notebook computer off-campus, you will need to add a local account for your use.
If you have any questions about the above services, we ask that you please contact the NDSU Help Desk at 231-8685.
