Changes to Remote Desktop Access

Do you use Remote Desktop to access your campus PC from home? If so, please note: Computing and Technology Services has deployed a new Remote Desktop Gateway server to act as a "connection broker" between your home computer and campus PC. The Gateway is a more secure method of connecting and will greatly reduce the amount of unwanted traffic that hits our campus network.

If you wish to continue using Remote Desktop, you must configure the Gateway connection by following one of the links below:

How do I configure my home PC for use with the Remote Desktop Gateway server?
How do I configure my home Mac for use with the Remote Desktop Gateway server?

In order to set up the Gateway connection, you'll need to know the device name of your campus PC. The old method of using the IP address to connect to your campus PC will cease to function on Wednesday, May 27. The Gateway is ready to use now, so make these changes today and test your connection through the Gateway before the old method is no longer available. Please call the Computing Help Desk at 878-4357 with questions.
