-The Research Data Management system (RDMS) is accessible via the following methods and interfaces. +In general, the RDMS is accessible via the following methods and interfaces that allow for data transfer/management.  
 + 
 +  * **RDMS web interface**\\ Via the [[rdms:webapp|RDMS web interface]], it is possible to [[rdms:data:filesize|transfer files directly]] as long as they are not bigger than 50 MB.  
 + 
 +  * **WebDAV**\\ The WebDAV protocol is a major way to access the RDMS from all of the common OS (Windows, MacOS, Linux) There are multiple clients to use for WebDAV, for example WinSCP, Cyberduck or NextCloud. It is also possible to incorporate the RDMS drive directly in the file explorer your OS.\\ The general configuration for WebDAV access to the RDMS uses the following parameters: 
 +      * **Username:** ''<username>@rug.nl'' or ''<username>@student.rug.nl'' (equal to your UG mail adress) 
 +      * **Server:** ''webdav.data.rug.nl'' 
 +      * We made separate pages with the instructions about configuring a WebDAV client for [[rdms:access:windows:cyberduck|Windows]],  [[rdms:access:mac|MacOS]] and [[rdms:access:linux:webdav|Linux]]. 
 + 
 +  * **Command-line**\\ Using command-line interface is currently only available to Linux users.  In order to login via the command-line you need to have ''iCommands'' installed and [[rdms:access:linux:icommands|create a profile]] in your Linux home directory. The more advanced Windows users can install [[https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/wsl/install|WSL2]], a virtualization of the Linux kernel in the Windows OS, and then use it to work via the command-line using ''iCommands''. This option is for advanced Windows users who need to upload huge amounts of data (>100Gb). Please also take a look at the Wiki page on [[rdms:data:filesize|file sizes]] on the RDMS.
  
-  * Via the [[rdms:webapp|RDMS WebApp]].  
-  * Command-line\\ Using command-line interface is currently only available to **Linux** users. In order to login via the command-line you need to [[rdms:access:linux:createprofile|create a profile]] in your home directory. The more advanced **Windows** users can install [[https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/wsl/install|WSL2]]; a virtualization of the Linux kernel in the Windows Operating System. This option is for advanced Windows users who need to upload big files (>100Gb). Have a look at the wiki pages about [[rdms:data:start|Data]]. 
-  * WebDAV\\ One can connect to the RDMS using a WebDAV client. There are multiple clients to use for WebDAV; for instance WinSCP, Cyberduck or NextCloud. It is also possible to incorporate the RDMS drive in your file explorer of the operating system that you are running (Windows, MacOS, Linux). To set up such a connection; open your WebDAV client and set the following parameters in the configuration fields. 
-      * Username is your RUG email address 
-      * Connect to the server: **webdav.data.rug.nl** 
-      * We made separate pages with the instructions about configuring a WebDAV client for [[rdms:access:windows:cyberduck|Windows]], [[rdms:access:mac:finder|MacOS]] and [[rdms:access:linux:webdav|Linux]].
