How to Set Windows AD Password & Connect To Shared Drive

Note that your Windows AD account username is the same as your pennkey username, but since this is a different account, the password will be whatever you set it to be.

1. Set New Password

To set (or reset) your SAS domain account password, please do the following:

* Use your browser to visit https://kite.password.isc.upenn.edu
* Select SAS from the list of “School and Center Active Directories”

Select SAS from list of Password Reset Options

* Login with your Pennkey
* Follow the directions for how to reset your SAS domain account password.
* Once you have set the password, check for an email confirming that the change has been made
* Note that this process will reset only your Shared Drive / Filemaker Pro account password — not your Pennkey password or other Penn credentials.

2. How To Connect to the Shared Drive

Note: You must be on a wired campus computer to connect to the shared drive -or- be connected to the Penn VPN.

Click on the desktop of your Mac computer (Finder) and click on the top menu bar: Go -> Connect To Server

To connect to the CPCW shared drive, enter:
smb://hum-files.sas.upenn.edu/hum-shares/cpcw-3808

To connect to the KWH shared drive, enter:
smb://hum-files.sas.upenn.edu/hum-shares/cpcw-kwh

Use your Windows AD account credentials (the account above in Step 1) to log in.
