An Individual Computer Account has been created for all students enrolled at RSU. Each account will remain active as long as the student is enrolled at RSU. The account will provide the student with space on the student file server (S: drive). Each student’s account will be automatically mapped to the appropriate drive; no student intervention required. The space provided to each student will only be accessible by that student. No one else will have access to a student’s disk area. The student file server is accessible from HH132, HH139, HH258, HS172, HS164, LH200, SSS Lab, Baird Writing, Library Labs, Learning Center Lab, Pryor campus, Bartlesville Campus, as well as from the residence halls.
The user id for a student is composed of the characters “sd” followed by the student’s first name and last name. (A maximum of 20 characters total, including the sd, are allowed.) If there are duplicates (another student has the same first name and last name), the user id is composed of the characters sd followed by the student’s first name and last name followed by a number. (Each instructor should be able to refer to their roll sheet and determine which number, if any, applies to each student.)
Example1: Suzy Day would have an id of sdsuzyday
Example2: If there is more than one person named Suzy Day, then one of them will have
an id of sdsuzyday, another will have id sdsuzyday2, another will have id sdsuzyday3, etc.
Each student’s password is his/her birthday: mmddyyyy (Note: password must be 8 characters)
Each student will be required to change his/her password the first time they log on.
Any problems should be reported at PREP 210. The student must present a valid photo id when reporting problems.
