Requirements
DHE Active Directory account with rights to Citrix (see guide at the bottom of this page)
Overview
Both a DHE domain account and the Sponsored Projects System (SPS) application account are required to access SPS using Citrix. The password for your DHE domain account should be at least six characters; one or more characters should be numbers, and contain no personal information. See Duke Health System Security Guidelines for details.
Opening SPS
Open your web browser and surf to https://citrix.duke.edu [Opens in a new window] . Your browser should display the web page. Fill in Username with your NetID, Password with your DHE domain password, and Domain with DHE and press the Log in button.
Running SPS
SPS using the Citrix secure web gateway is very similar to SPS running on a Windows workstation. The main differences relate to exporting proposals and printing forms. You may verify that exporting and printing from SPS are working correctly on your Macintosh.
Closing SPS
After quitting the SPS application, you are still connected to Citrix/domain. Press the Logout button on the web page to disconnect from Citrix.
How it works
You can connect to Duke's network by installing the Cisco AnyConnect VPN software program onto your computer. Visit the OIT Software (link is external) site to download the VPN client for your computer while you are on campus or before you travel.
Library Services
Most library resources are available from off-campus through the EZProxy service—no VPN connection is necessary. For more information, including how to get help, visit the Duke University Libraries Off-Campus Access to E-Resources (link is external) page.
