 While the usage of the web portal is convenient for permission management, working with metadata, management of RDMS Team Drives and Projects as well as the related archiving workflows, it is very limited on its up-/download capabilities (max. ~32MB per file). While the usage of the web portal is convenient for permission management, working with metadata, management of RDMS Team Drives and Projects as well as the related archiving workflows, it is very limited on its up-/download capabilities (max. ~32MB per file).
  
-Hence, we recommend to use either Finder with WebDAV or alternatively Cyberduck with WebDAV if you are using MacOS. In this section, both options will be explained. +Hence, we recommend to use either [[rdms:access:mac:finder|Finder]] with WebDAV or alternatively [[rdms:access:mac:cyberduck|Cyberduck]] with WebDAV if you are using MacOS. In the following sections, both options will be explained. 
  
-==== Using Finder and WebDAV ==== +\\ 
- +**Disclaimer**: The RDMS team does not support MacOS related issues.
-Finder is the default file manager under Mac. It's functionality allows to not only access the local file system, but also to access remote files using different protocols. For this section, we will configure Finder using the WebDAV interface of the RDMS which allows for the data transfer in Mac without using additional third-party software.  +
- +
-In order for Finder to access the RDMS, you need to provide our WebDAV address: ''https://webdav.data.rug.nl''. +
- +
-The more detailed configuration of Finder and RDMS WebDAV is listed below: +
- +
-  - Click on your Desktop to get Finder's attention. +
-  - Press **Command-Key + K** to open the 'Go to Server' dialog (see note below for an alternative way to access this dialog).  +
-  - Specify the WebDAV address ''https://webdav.data.rug.nl'' and confirm by pressing the ''Connect'' button.\\  {{ :rdms:access:macos_finder1.png?400 |}} \\ +
-  - A new window will open. Select 'Registered User' and specify your RDMS user name (UG mail address) and password. Additionally also select the option to save your RDMS password for later re-use. Then again, click the ''Connect'' button \\ {{ :rdms:access:macos_finder2.png?400 |}} \\ +
-  - The RDMS WebDAV access will appear in Finder and data transfer is now possible (for example via drag & drop of files/folders).\\ {{ :rdms:access:macos_finder3.png?600 |}} \\ +
- +
-**Notes:**\\ +
- +
-  * The 'Go to Server' dialog can be also accessed by right-clicking on the Finder logo in the Mac Dock.\\ {{ :rdms:access:finder_webdav4.png?700 |}} \\ +
-  * If you experience connection problems be sure that the specified address and username/password are correct. Also check that you are **in the UG network** and use the [[https://iris.service.rug.nl/tas/public/ssp/content/detail/knowledgeitem?unid=dc03cee332c44f3e989baa67c93c0539|UG VPN]] if trying to access the RDMS remotely! +
