Password: your-biostat-password

For MacOS:

For Windows:

Windows users can use the Remote Desktop Connection client.

Connecting from Windows

Start menu —–> All Programs —–> Accessories —–> Remote Desktop Connection. In the computer box type in server name then click “connect” button.

*If you are having trouble authenticating to a particular server try prefixing your username with “bcg\”. For example “bcg\rose”. This will make sure you are logging into the “BCG” domain rather than into the local server.

*If you are not on a Biostat network (144.92.73, 128.104.134 or 128.104.206) then you need to run the GlobalProtect VPN client in order to connect to these servers. For some collaborators in other departments who for some reason can’t run GlobalProtect, we can add their static IP number to the firewall rules so they can have access.
