If you are unable to login to college machines using your EECS credentials, the issue is most likely that you have exceeded your profile/file server storage limit. Your Profile will stop syncing if quota is exceeded. To prevent exceeding your profile quota limit, make sure to move files to your home directory instead of just leaving it around in Desktop or Downloads or elsewhere. Read on for what you can do if your profile quota has exceeded.
Note: If you’ve exceeded your file server storage space, then you’d have to contact ITL helpdesk or systems office at CS327 for fixes. But before that, read here about Login/Profile problems.
Fix profile quota excess:
Users have seperate space allocated for Windows profiles which has limited space. Please note that this is completely separate from your home directory (H drive). You will need to move or delete large files from your profile. Usually most of these will be in the Desktop or Downloads folders. You can easily find where the largest files are in your profile by clicking on the red cross in the bottom right taskbar icon. If you have exceeded your profile quota you will get the following message below, roughly every 5-10 minutes.
You will see a window with a list of files ordered largest first. You should move or delete these files.
The red cross should then change to a blue screen icon showing available free space, as below. You can now log off and your files will be synced with the server copy of the profile.
NOTE: If you log off before freeing space your profile will not be synced with the server copy and will stay on that machine
