How to Upload your Web Files onto the ASE Server using a Macintosh System

While the Mac OS does have native support for WebDAV, it doesn't have native support for WebDAV over SSL (which encrypts and provides security for your transmission). Therefore, you'll need to download a different WebDAV client.

1. Download WebDAV software to your computer.
   
   WebDAV software will allow you to copy files from your computer to the web server. ITS recommends Goliath for Macintosh systems. Please click on this download link, and then select a directory to download the software to.
    
2. Uncompress, Install, and Run Goliath
   
   Now that you've downloaded the software, you'll need to uncompress and install it to use it. Open up the downloaded file and move it into your applications folder. Once you've done this, just open up the Goliath client.
    
3. Connect to and Moving Files to and from the Web Server
   
   Now Goliath is running you need to connect to a web server.
   1. If you are not prompted to create a new connection, go to the File menu and select "New Connection...".
   2. In the URL field, type "https://webdav.ase.tufts.edu/<site-path>", where "<site-path>" is the path to your site. This site path was either provided to you when you requested access or, if your site was migrated from FTP to WebDAV, is identical to your old FTP path. For example, if the path to my old FTP site was "/ase/departments/its", my URL would be "https://webdav.ase.tufts.edu/ase/departments/its".
   3. The User Name you'll use is your Tufts network username (this is the same username you use to login to the network or computer labs).
   4. The Password is your Tufts network password (again, this is the same password you use to login to the network or computer labs). As this connection is encrypted, your password is secure
   5. Now you can move files to the server in the same way you'd normally move items between folders on your computer.
       
4. Quitting Goliath
   
   To quit Goliath, choose Quit from the File menu within Goliath.
