Salina VPN / Remote Desktop Access - General Information
K-State at Salina's VPN service allows you to establish an encrypted tunnel between
your computer and the Salina campus' VPN server. A VPN (Virtual Private Network) connection
is needed to access non-public resources on K-State at Salina's network from off-campus.
Note: Use of the VPN is limited to K-State Salina faculty and staff and requires prior
approval from the corresponding department head. Users wanting general VPN access
to K-State's Manhattan campus should refer to the ITS VPN page.
Remote Desktop Access describes the process of using one computer to "remotely control"
another computer.
When used together, a VPN connection and Remote Desktop Access can allow K-State at
Salina faculty/staff the ability to securely "remote in" to their office computer
when they are away from work. In order to "remote in" to your office computer from
home, you will need to do three things:
STEP 1: Set up your OFFICE computer
My office computer is running: ( Windows | Mac OS X )
STEP 2: Set up your HOME computer
My home computer is running: ( Windows | Mac OS X )
STEP 3: Connect
