<div>=Mounting Cloud Storage on Linux=<br />
Mounting Box.com or Google Drive storage as a disk or file system is not available on CSEE/UMBC maintained machines. These steps are provided for those who run their own Linux systems.<br />
<br />
The only way to access files on UMBC/CSEE maintained systems is by uploading/downloading files using a Web Browser to access their respective sites:<br />
* http://drive.google.com - Google Drive<br />
* http://box.umbc.edu - Box.com<br />
==Google Drive==<br />
GNOME 3 is required to access Google Drive as a remote disk on Linux--this will not work from a CSEE maintained Linux system.<br />
<br />
Open the GNOME Control Center (or “Settings”) application. If a desktop environment other than GNOME 3 is being used, install gnome-control-center and then run it from the command line.<br />
<br />
Click “Online Accounts”, click the plus symbol (if the plus symbol is dimmed, click the button "Add an online account"), and add your Google account. If this control is not available, install the gnome-online-accounts package.<br />
<br />
Enter your UMBC username and password and accept/allow GNOME to access your Google data. A copy of your credentials will be stored in the GNOME keyring.<br />
<br />
The Google Drive will be accessible from Nautilus, the GNOME3 file manager. The drive name will be your UMBC email address. If the Google Drive isn't showing up, check to make sure that the gvfs-goa package is installed.<br />
<br />
When you are finished accessing your Google Drive, eject the volume from a Nautilus window. Then, open GNOME Control Center, click Google, and click the minus symbol.<br />
<br />
==Box.com==<br />
Due to the way this works, ''it is '''NOT''' recommended to perform these steps since it disables the default security that campus places on box.com accounts''.<br />
===Add external password to Box===<br />
This steps adds a new authentication method to a box.com account. UMBC may no longer be able to track if this account gets compromised. It is NOT recommended to make this change.<br />
<br />
Before you connect, you must create an external password through the Box web interface.<br />
# Open an internet browser and log on to box.umbc.edu<br />
# Click on your name in the upper right corner. In the drop down, click on “Account Settings”<br />
# The bottom section bubble should say “Create External Password.” Click “Edit password”<br />
# Create an external password.<br />
Note: This password must be different from your email password<br />
<br />
====Using GNOME====<br />
This is the simplest method and supports full synchronization of your box account.<br />
# Open Files program (nautilus if launching from command line)<br />
# Click on "Other Locations" in the left pane<br />
# In the bottom right where it says connect to server type <pre>ftps://ftp.box.com</pre> and click connect<br />
# enter your USERNAME@umbc.edu and your box password<br />
<br />
====Using SFTP====<br />
If you are familiar with ftp commands and do not wish to use gnome, you may prefer this method.<br />
=====Run lftp=====<br />
Run the following command<br />
$ lftp<br />
lftp :~> set ftps:initial-prot ""<br />
lftp :~> set ftp:ssl-force true<br />
lftp :~> set ftp:ssl-protect-data true<br />
lftp :~> open ftps://ftp.box.com:990<br />
lftp :~> user username@umbc.edu<br />
lftp username@umbc.edu.edu@ftp.box.com:~> ls<br />
<br />
====Using WebDAV (DEPRECATED)====<br />
This service will only work to access data from a personal computer--this will not work on CSEE maintained Linux computers. Due to the way this works, ''it is '''NOT''' recommended to perform these steps since it disables the default security that campus places on box.com accounts''.<br />
=====Install davfs2 Package=====<br />
======Ubuntu, Debian, and Mint======<br />
To install davfs2 on Ubuntu, Debian or Mint:<br />
$ sudo apt-get install davfs2<br />
======CentOS, RHEL or Fedora======<br />
To install davfs2 on CentOS, RHEL or Fedora:<br />
$ sudo yum install davfs2<br />
======Disable file locks======<br />
The WebDAV share exported by Box.com does not support file locks. Thus you need to disable file locks in the davfs2 configuration file located at /etc/davfs2/davfs2.conf. Otherwise, you will encounter "Input/output error" while attempting to create a file.<br />
$ sudo vi /etc/davfs2/davfs2.conf<br />
<br />
use_locks 0<br />
<br />
=====Create a mount point=====<br />
mkdir ~/box.com<br />
replace "~/box.com" with your preferred mount point<br />
=====Add yourself to usergroup=====<br />
This step is only needed if you want to mount as a non-root user.<br />
$ sudo usermod -a -G davfs2 USERNAME<br />
where "USERNAME" is your username<br />
<br />
=====Edit fstab=====<br />
Add the following to /etc/fstab. The "user" option allows you to mount Box.com as an unprivileged non-root user. <br />
<nowiki>https://dav.box.com/dav /home/user/box.com davfs rw,user,noauto 0 0</nowiki><br />
Replace "/home/user/box.com" with your own mount point.<br />
<br />
=====Run mount=====<br />
The final step is to run mount.<br />
$ mount box.com<br />
replacing "box.com" with the mount point used in the fstab<br />
<br />
=====When finished with box.com access=====<br />
The box.com file system needs to be unmounted when you are done with it<br />
$ umount box.com<br />

====Run mount====<br />
The final step is to run mount.<br />
$ mount box.com<br />
replacing "box.com" with the mount point used in the fstab<br />
<br />
====When finished with box.com access====<br />
The box.com file system needs to be unmounted when you are done with it<br />
$ umount box.com<br />

<hr />
<div>=Mounting Cloud Storage on Linux=<br />
Mounting Box.com or Google Drive storage as a disk or file system is not available on CSEE/UMBC maintained machines. These steps are provided for those who run their own Linux systems.<br />
<br />
The only way to access files on UMBC/CSEE maintained systems is by uploading/downloading files using a Web Browser to access their respective sites:<br />
* http://drive.google.com - Google Drive<br />
* http://box.umbc.edu - Box.com<br />
==Google Drive==<br />
GNOME 3 is required to access Google Drive as a remote disk on Linux--this will not work from a CSEE maintained Linux system.<br />
<br />
Open the GNOME Control Center (or “Settings”) application. If a desktop environment other than GNOME 3 is being used, install gnome-control-center and then run it from the command line.<br />
<br />
Click “Online Accounts”, click the plus symbol (if the plus symbol is dimmed, click the button "Add an online account"), and add your Google account. If this control is not available, install the gnome-online-accounts package.<br />
<br />
Enter your UMBC username and password and accept/allow GNOME to access your Google data. A copy of your credentials will be stored in the GNOME keyring.<br />
<br />
The Google Drive will be accessible from Nautilus, the GNOME3 file manager. The drive name will be your UMBC email address. If the Google Drive isn't showing up, check to make sure that the gvfs-goa package is installed.<br />
<br />
When you are finished accessing your Google Drive, eject the volume from a Nautilus window. Then, open GNOME Control Center, click Google, and click the minus symbol.<br />
<br />
==Box.com==<br />
===Using SFTP===<br />
Due to the way this works, ''it is '''NOT''' recommended to perform these steps since it disables the default security that campus places on box.com accounts''.<br />
====Add external password to Box====<br />
This steps adds a new authentication method to a box.com account. UMBC may no longer be able to track if this account gets compromised. It is NOT recommended to make this change.<br />
<br />
Before you connect, you must create an external password through the Box web interface.<br />
# Open an internet browser and log on to box.umbc.edu<br />
# Click on your name in the upper right corner. In the drop down, click on “Account Settings”<br />
# The bottom section bubble should say “Create External Password.” Click “Edit password”<br />
# Create an external password.<br />
Note: This password must be different from your email password<br />
====Run lftp====<br />
Run the following command<br />
lftp -c 'open -e "set ftps:initial-prot ""; \<br />
set ftp:ssl-force true; \<br />
set ftp:ssl-protect-data true; \<br />
open ftps://ftp.box.com:990; \<br />
user username@umbc.edu; \<br />
mirror --reverse --delete --no-perms --verbose "/home/user/box.com" "";" '<br />
replacing "/home/user/box.com" with your own mount point.<br />
You will have to run this command every time you want to sync the folder.<br />
===Using WebDAV (DEPRECATED)===<br />
This service will only work to access data from a personal computer--this will not work on CSEE maintained Linux computers. Due to the way this works, ''it is '''NOT''' recommended to perform these steps since it disables the default security that campus places on box.com accounts''.<br />
====Install davfs2 Package====<br />
=====Ubuntu, Debian, and Mint=====<br />
To install davfs2 on Ubuntu, Debian or Mint:<br />
$ sudo apt-get install davfs2<br />
=====CentOS, RHEL or Fedora=====<br />
To install davfs2 on CentOS, RHEL or Fedora:<br />
$ sudo yum install davfs2<br />
=====Disable file locks=====<br />
The WebDAV share exported by Box.com does not support file locks. Thus you need to disable file locks in the davfs2 configuration file located at /etc/davfs2/davfs2.conf. Otherwise, you will encounter "Input/output error" while attempting to create a file.<br />
$ sudo vi /etc/davfs2/davfs2.conf<br />
<br />
use_locks 0<br />
<br />
====Create a mount point====<br />
mkdir ~/box.com<br />
replace "~/box.com" with your preferred mount point<br />
====Add yourself to usergroup====<br />
This step is only needed if you want to mount as a non-root user.<br />
$ sudo usermod -a -G davfs2 USERNAME<br />
where "USERNAME" is your username<br />
<br />
====Edit fstab====<br />
Add the following to /etc/fstab. The "user" option allows you to mount Box.com as an unprivileged non-root user. <br />
<nowiki>https://dav.box.com/dav /home/user/box.com davfs rw,user,noauto 0 0</nowiki><br />
Replace "/home/user/box.com" with your own mount point.<br />
<br />
====Add external password to Box====<br />
This steps adds a new authentication method to a box.com account. UMBC may no longer be able to track if this account gets compromised. It is NOT recommended to make this change.<br />
<br />
Before you connect, you must create an external password through the Box web interface.<br />
# Open an internet browser and log on to box.umbc.edu<br />
# Click on your name in the upper right corner. In the drop down, click on “Account Settings”<br />
# The bottom section bubble should say “Create External Password.” Click “Edit password”<br />
# Create an external password.<br />
Note: This password must be different from your email password<br />
<br />
====Run mount====<br />
The final step is to run mount.<br />
$ mount box.com<br />
replacing "box.com" with the mount point used in the fstab<br />
<br />
====When finished with box.com access====<br />
The box.com file system needs to be unmounted when you are done with it<br />

The CSEE mail servers use a secure connection for incoming and outgoing mail; so you will need to customize your mail client in order to read and send e-mail on your CSEE account. This page explains how to configure your e-mail client for the CSEE Mail Services. This page will discuss Thunderbird and Microsoft Outlook If you use a different client, please refer to your client's documentation. You will need to set up your client for the following services:<br/><br />
<br/><br />

<br/><br />
<!--<br />
'''Note:''' For Thunderbird and Microsoft Outlook, the same installation steps can be followed for both IMAP and POP server types. Outlook Express, however, must be configured to use POP. (see below)<br />
'''Update 10/5/2010:''' Port 25 may no longer work for off-campus connections from the Verizon network. The work-around is to port 587 for SMTP instead.<br />

==Alpine==<br />
Alpine's default access method uses direct access to your mail spool in /var/mail. This means that running multiple copies of Alpine (even on multiple systems) will not work. This also will not work on current linux systems. This change will require that you have to type your password to access your mail.<br />
<br />
With that said, to configure Alpine to use IMAP, edit the line beginning with <tt>inbox-path=</tt> in <tt>~/.pinerc</tt>:<br />
inbox-path={imap.cs.umbc.edu/ssl/novalidate-cert}INBOX<br />
<br />
From the main menu, navigate the collectionLists page by pressing (S then L) to configure folders. Press enter to edit the folders, and optionally set a nickname. The Server line is for retrieving rather than sending mail. The following example is for an IMAP server:<br />
<br />
imap.cs.umbc.edu:993/user=jimbob123/ssl<br />
<br />
If you do not want to see the rest of your home directory, type <tt>mail</tt> for path.<br />
<br />
Alpine can also support the UMBC LDAP server to search for names and email addresses. This support can be added by editing the line beginning with <tt>ldap-servers=</tt> in <tt>~/.pinerc</tt> (this is all one line):<br />
ldap-servers=directory.umbc.edu "/base=dc=umbc,dc=edu/impl=0/rhs=0/ref=0/nosub=0/type=/srch=/time=/size=/cust=/nick=/matr=/catr=/satr=/gatr="<br />

==Alpine==<br />
Alpine's default access method uses direct access to your mail spool in /var/mail. This means that running multiple copies of Alpine (even on multiple systems) will not work. This also will not work on current linux systems. This change will require that you have to type your password to access your mail.<br />
<br />
With that said, to configure Alpine to use IMAP, edit the line beginning with <tt>inbox-path=</tt> in <tt>~/.pinerc</tt>:<br />
inbox-path={imap.cs.umbc.edu/ssl/novalidate-cert}INBOX<br />
<br />
From the main menu, navigate the collectionLists page by pressing (S then L) to configure folders. Press enter to edit the folders, and optionally set a nickname. The Server line is for retrieving rather than sending mail. The following example is for an IMAP server:<br />
<br />
imap.cs.umbc.edu:993/user=jimbob123/ssl<br />
The Path and View fields can often be left blank.<br />
<br />
Alpine can also support the UMBC LDAP server to search for names and email addresses. This support can be added by editing the line beginning with <tt>ldap-servers=</tt> in <tt>~/.pinerc</tt> (this is all one line):<br />
ldap-servers=directory.umbc.edu "/base=dc=umbc,dc=edu/impl=0/rhs=0/ref=0/nosub=0/type=/srch=/time=/size=/cust=/nick=/matr=/catr=/satr=/gatr="<br />

The CSEE mail servers use a secure connection for incoming and outgoing mail; so you will need to customize your mail client in order to read and send e-mail on your CSEE account. This page explains how to configure your e-mail client for the CSEE Mail Services. This page will discuss Thunderbird and Microsoft Outlook If you use a different client, please refer to your client's documentation. You will need to set up your client for the following services:<br/><br />
<br/><br />

The CSEE mail servers use a secure connection for incoming and outgoing mail; so you will need to customize your mail client in order to read and send e-mail on your CSEE account. This page explains how to configure your e-mail client for the CSEE Mail Services. This page will discuss Thunderbird and Microsoft Outlook If you use a different client, please refer to your client's documentation. You will need to set up your client for the following services:<br/><br />
<br/><br />
{| border="1" align="center" class="prettytable"<br />
! '''Service'''<br />
! '''Server name'''<br />
! '''Port'''<br />
|-<br />
|Secure IMAP<br />
|imap.cs.umbc.edu<br />
|993<br />
|-<br />
|Secure POP<br />
|imap.cs.umbc.edu<br />
|995<br />
|-<br />
|Secure SMTP<br />
|smtp.cs.umbc.edu<br />
|25<br />
|}<br />
<br/><br />
<!--<br />
'''Note:''' For Thunderbird and Microsoft Outlook, the same installation steps can be followed for both IMAP and POP server types. Outlook Express, however, must be configured to use POP. (see below)<br />
'''Update 10/5/2010:''' Port 25 may no longer work for off-campus connections from the Verizon network. The work-around is to port 587 for SMTP instead.<br />

==Alpine==<br />
Alpine's default access method uses direct access to your mail spool in /var/mail. This means that running multiple copies of Alpine (even on multiple systems) will not work. This also will not work on current linux systems. This change will require that you have to type your password to access your mail.<br />
<br />
With that said, to configure Alpine to use IMAP, edit the line beginning with <tt>inbox-path=</tt> in <tt>~/.pinerc</tt>:<br />
inbox-path={imap.cs.umbc.edu/ssl/novalidate-cert}INBOX<br />
<br />
From the main menu, navigate the collectionLists page by pressing (S then L) to configure folders. Press enter to edit the folders, and optionally set a nickname. The Server line is for retrieving rather than sending mail. The following example is for an IMAP server:<br />
<br />
imap.cs.umbc.edu:993/user=jimbob123/ssl<br />
The Path and View fields can often be left blank.<br />
<br />
Alpine can also support the UMBC LDAP server to search for names and email addresses. This support can be added by editing the line beginning with <tt>ldap-servers=</tt> in <tt>~/.pinerc</tt> (this is all one line):<br />
ldap-servers=directory.umbc.edu "/base=dc=umbc,dc=edu/impl=0/rhs=0/ref=0/nosub=0/type=/srch=/time=/size=/cust=/nick=/matr=/catr=/satr=/gatr="<br />
