First Time Users

All staff of the UG have access to the RDMS, but you need to log in once via the WebApp to create your RDMS account.

Note: Only UG members with a personnel number (P-number) or student number (S-number) can log in to the RDMS directly. Please contact us if other UG accounts , for example functional accounts (F-number) need access.

Make sure you are in the network of the UG!

The RDMS is only accessible from the RUG network, meaning that you can only log in to the system with an IP-address from the UG. On the UG premises Eduroam or wired internet connection will give you an internal IP-address. On other machines and locations, you need to use a VPN connection.

After that you are set to start using the RDMS via your choice of platforms and protocols. You could use WebDAV for file management and the WebApp for data management or the command line interface (CLI) for both.

In this user manual, for the first time users of Cyberduck and WinSCP there are dedicated sections with all the steps and associated screenshots included.
