Admin Shares

The FBRI provides departmental and organization-wide storage areas referred to as Admin Shares.  Admin shares may be assigned to you depending on your role.  Examples include the HR share, Finance share, IT share, etc.  There are also globally accessible shares that contain things like presentation templates, logos, letterhead, and company directories.  

NOTE: You will need to be connected to the FBRI wired network or FBRI VPN to access these resources.

ADMIN SHARE UNC PATH: \\fileservices.vtc.vt.edu\admin

Accessing the Admin Shares: 

  • On a FBRI Windows computer, the Admin Shares should be mapped for you automatically and assigned the drive letter Z:\.
  • On a Mac or OS X device, you can map to the UNC path listed above by following similar instructions found here.

PLEASE NOTE: Data stored on the network is backed up and protected.  FBRI does not backup or protect data stored locally on workstations.  

REQUESTING ACCESS: An on-line access request is required to add / remove people from network shares.  All access requests must be submitted by authorized personnel.
