It is good practice to backup regularly, and we are trying to make this easy for everyone in the Chemical Engineering department by utilising a system already in place at Electric, Electronic and Computer Engineering. In order to facilitate this, you need to do a few things:

# In your "My Documents" folder, create a folder called BackedUp and move all the things that you want to be backed up into this folder. Please do not include things like personal photographs, movies and music files, as we have limited space for backups. If you don't have such files in "My Documents", let me know and I can arrange to back up your whole "My Documents".
# Once you have done this, send [mailto:carl.sandrock@up.ac.za me] your IP address, which can be found by the following procedure:
## Click "Start", then "Run" (or press Windowskey+R)
## In the dialog box, type "cmd" and hit enter
## A black window will appear. Type "ipconfig /all" and hit enter
## The IP address appears as a number of the form 137.215.xxx.xxx

When I receive the e-mail with your IP address I will send you a password. You will need this to set up the backup software, following the instructions at the [http://www.ee.up.ac.za/main/en/computing/backups EERC website]
