Submitting an Updated Version of Your Phys 275 Classwork

Here are some quick instructions on how to submit your corrected spreadsheets from your dorm room, home computer, etc. You need to use ftp. The file protections are set such that you are not allowed to overwrite your original file, so you will have to give your new file a different name.  My preferred names for you to use are something like:   <Yourlastname>_<LabX>_v2.xls

1) Start your favorite ftp program and connect to student.physics.umd.edu. Log in
as yourself using your physics account.

2) go to the following location
       /dept/phys/courses/Phys275/submissions

    If you are using the DOS version of ftp, the command is
       cd /dept/phys/courses/Phys275/submissions

3) Go to your section and to the folder that contains the lab you want to resubmit, e.g.,
       cd 0201/Lab4
if you want to submit an updated copy of your lab 4 spreadsheet.

4) Go to your local directory where your file is located. Under DOS, this would be
       lcd c:/<yourdirectory>/<Yourlastname>_<LabX>_v2.xls
With most Windows/based programs you can click your way there.

5) Move the file from your local machine to student.physics. Under DOS, this would be
       put <Yourlastname>_<LabX>_v2.xls

With most Windows/based programs there's an arrow button or you can drag and drop the file. If this procedure fails, email the file to your TA, and let them and/or me know that it failed.  Either way be sure to let your TA know that you have submitted a new file and what it's name is.

New files are due by 6 PM Wed/Thurs/Fri of the week in which you did the work for the
Mon/Tues/Wed sections, respectively.
