What it means to sign in to Nexus

  • Network drives (N, P, S, and maybe M and R) get connected as part of the sign in
  • Some folders (e.g. Documents, Music, Videos, Pictures) are redirected to the file server so files are saved to a safe location
  • Your account is managed by WatIAM so changes there (e.g. password) apply to this sign in too
