Nội dung Text: What is Remote Access

What is Remote Access? The Remote Access system allows you to set up your computer at any offcampus location and to use the barcode number on your student card as a password. When you access the databases and ejournals using this system there is no need for a specific password for each service as the system makes your computer act as if you are on campus and access is automatic. It relies on IP recognition as a means of accessing subscribed databases. The alphabetic and subject lists at the Database and Electronic Resources Menu show which databases are available via Remote Access. These lists indicate if a database is only available via Password Access, or oncampus. All the others with a " open database " link are available via Remote Access. There is also a Summary List of Remote Access resources. Remote access setup steps What is Extro? You can set up an Extro Internet Service Provider (ISP) account with University of Sydney. When you dialin to Extro from offcampus, your computer logs into part of the University network. You can then access the ejournals and databases which permit offcampus access, without being prompted for database logins or passwords. Information on Extro for Cumberland students. Extro Setup Documentation Frequently Asked Questions about Extro. What is Password Access? If you have followed all the instructions and can't set up the Remote Access system, the Library can issue passwords which let you use ereserve and some databases. Unfortunately these specific passwords will not give you access to the same range of databases and ejournals as via the Remote Access system or Extro. The passwords for Library eresources are different to your MyUni login details and must be applied for. Your MyUni/UniKey login details will not give you access to Library e resources, ereserve or course readings. Postgraduates and academics can also receive passwords for DIRECT document delivery. Apply for a password Databases with password access About DIRECT document delivery for postgraduates and academics To set up Remote Access you need: An account with a commercial ISP which permits direct connection to the Library proxy server You will also have to: have standard Web Browser software Netscape or MS Internet Explorer, versions 3.0 and higher. (A browser is the application you are using to read this page now.) configure your browser to use the Library proxy server. See the setup instructions below. (Remote Access traffic is connected through a proxy server which verifies that you are an enrolled student or staff member. Once you have been verified, all your requests to databases are directed through the proxy server, and appear to be coming from within the Library network.)
and have a current student or staff Library Barcode Number (the 13 digit number printed on your student/ staff Library card) Remote Access setup steps: 1. Check that your ISP supports direct connection to the Library's proxy server. If it runs a proxy/caching system, you must be able to bypass it if required. Please note that many users with Telstra Bigpond Home accounts report difficulty in connecting to our proxy server. Users with Telstra Business Essentials accounts may be able to access our server. The prices and terms are similar to some Bigpond Home accounts. 2. Configure your Web browser Netscape or MS Internet Explorer You will only need to do this once, unless you reinstall or change your browser. 3.The Remote Access Login screen (see below) will now appear when you click on a link in the catalogue to open an eresource, or when you first go to one of the library web pages such as http://www.library.usyd.edu.au. It will ask for your name and Library Barcode Number. It will disappear when you have been authenticated as a valid user. From then on, your computer will appear to databases to be coming from within the University of Sydney network, and you should not be prompted for any additional logins or passwords. Your connection to Remote Access will time out after 10 minutes of no activity. If the Remote Access Login screen does not appear, or reappears after you have filled it out, refer to Troubleshooting.
