At my school, all computers are part of a domain. I know specific address' to log onto network drives such as \\ntwit02\shared. but my computer is part of my own network. how would I find my shared folders on my internal network through the school domain?

It sounds like you want to access your home files while on the school's domain.

The best way to do this would be setting up vpn access to your home network, but I seriously doubt that your school's firewall/proxy would allow access to it.

Another option is to use a file synchronization service like live mesh where you can keep files "in the cloud" allowing them to be accessed from anywhere. Again, these type of sites are usually blocked by schools, workplaces, etc. Anywhere that you are expected to be productive will most likely block you from this type of activity. Good luck.
