Accessing EdShare from Off Campus - Windows OS
 

To access EdShare from off campus you must FTP to the server using your SEU login information. This should be the same as your EdWeb login name and password. If you cannot login, you may need to reset your password using EdWeb.

*You must have a Secure FTP client installed to access EdShare from your home computer. We recommend using WinSCP 3.7.5 for Windows. This software is free to the St. Edward's community. You can download it from http://www.frc.stedwards.edu/installers.

How to setup FTP to EdShare using WinSCP (PC):

  1. Open WinSCP. It should be located under Start > Programs > SEU Network Applications, or under Start > Programs > WinSCP.
  2. Select Stored sessions, and click on New.


  3. For the Host name enter edshare.stedwards.edu, and leave the port number as 22.
  4. Enter your user name and password. * If this computer is used by more than one person, you may not want to enter your login name and password. This information will be stored and others can login to your account.
  5. Select SCP at the bottom.
    When complete, the window should look like this:


  6. Click on Save. You will be prompted to enter a session name. Use the default, or enter a name and click OK.

How to login with a Stored Session using WinSCP (PC):

  1. Open WinSCP. Should be located under Start > Programs > SEU Network Applications, or under Start > Programs >WinSCP.
  2. Double click on the name of the Stored Session (Example: Edshare.stedwards.edu), and enter your login information if prompted. This will log you into your EdShare home folder. If you cannot login, you may need to reset your password using EdWeb.
  3. Your files in your Home folder on EdShare (/seu/staff/home/loginname) will be on the Right side of the screen. Files on your local computer's hard drive will be on the left.
  4. You may drag files or folders from one side to the other to move files from your local computer to EdShare.
