| Doc-Server
stands for Document Server. It has been available to faculty and
staff since Spring of 1999 as a place to back up files from your
on-campus computer. In order to use the Doc-Server, you must
first have an account on the Doc-Server. If you've never
used the account before, you will want to contact us to
have an account created for you. Or call User Services
at ext. 4397 and request that an account be created for you.
If
