Login Instructions

In order to use an instrument you must have a valid Novell network login ID and password, and may be supplied with a username and password valid for the windows workstation hosting the instrument. The Novell network ID will allow you access to the network only, and you must log into the network in order to gain access to the instrument. Following the network login you may be asked to provide a local workstation username and password to complete the validation process. Access to instruments is being actively managed and monitored.

1. Login to the Novell Network
   1. At the Novell Client Login Screen type the Novell user ID you have been given.
   2. Use the <TAB> key to move the curser to the next line. Using the <TAB> enables the client software to locate your user ID in the Novell system.
   3. Enter your password on the “password” line. Capitalization is significant. After you have typed you password click on the “OK” button or hit the <ENTER> key. Important Note: When entering a username and password you are agreeing to the University of Kansas acceptable use policy http://www.policy.ku.edu/it/acceptableuse.shtml.
   4. If your username and/or password were incorrect you will receive a Novell Security Message alerting you the “system could not log you on”.
   5. If your username and/or password were correct you should be able to move to the next step if required – Logging into the windows workstation.
      
      
2. Login to the Windows Workstation –
   1. If you are an authorized user you will have been given a user name and password for the workstation hosting the instrument during your training.
   2. After entering this information and selecting <ENTER> the windows software should start and enable you to proceed with your use of the instrument.
   3. In a few cases a third login may be necessary to operate the instrument manufacturer’s software. If so this information will have been given to you during training on the instrument.
      
      
3. Do not fail to logoff when you are finished using the instrument. As long as you remain logged onto the instrument you are responsible for its use and condition. Logging off protects you from being held accountable for the actions of the next user.
   
   
4. Important Notes: After logins are complete you should have access to the regular home directories assigned to you by your network manager. If you are a teaching assistant your access is limited to the IIL_grp directory on the G drive. Please store all data collected on the server in these directories as the server is backed up daily. The IIL is not responsible for data stored on local computers.
