Rumba

The Rumba service has replaced the old Samba service.

It is recommended to work without downloading the client, except for exceptions.

 

Enter the site http://rumba.huji.ac.il

Pay attention to the new identification method. Now the login is not through a permanent password but through a password generator card (OTP) or through a one-time password that comes as an SMS to the phone or as a code to an email address.

After choosing the option that suits you, you will go to a window where you will be required to type the RA username in the format username%ra and then click on Logon

Enter the one-time code or authenticate with a password generator (OTP) card and then click on Logon 

 

Every user will receive a slightly different windows, depending on the privileges of your username.

At the end of the installation, return to the Rumba website and click on VPN Client again.

Once clicked, a window will pop up asking you if you want to open the software. Click on Open F5 Networks VPN

 

 

Wait for the connection process to finish. You will see a green Connect message when you are successful. 

When you have finished working, press the Disconnect button.

Connecting to MyPlace – Administrative Staff and Students

MyPlace is a virtual terminal that allows administrative staff to access administrative software and for students to remotely access all software found on public computers with ease. It is recommended using the Rumba service instead of the VPN client since it uses fewer computer and internet resources.

Click on the MyPlace icon.

 

A window will open for entering details. Under username enter your Savion username if you work at the University or the public computers account if you are a student.  Under password enter your password and under domain enter CC. When finished, click Logon.

Please notice that the Icon has changed to Minhali or Farms.  Please click on it.

  

You are now connected to the virtual terminal with all the necessary software to work from home, including CC shared drives.

EKMD users can click on "EKMD Drive Mapping" . After entering your EKMD code and password you will see your EKMD drives on My Computer.
