Recommendations

• Don't look upon the home area as your only or primary storage solution. OneDrive, for example, is just as safe for your work and easier to access in practice, especially if you're on the move. Read more about UiB's OneDrive.   
• Remote Desktop Connection easily provides access in both your home directory and more. By connecting to Desktop.uib.no you get all basic programs and services available. You can also connect to your own office computer on campus. Then you will be in your usual working environment through the machine at home. read more here.

Prerequisites

• You have to be connected to the UiB network, either on campus or via VPN (Virtual Private Network).
