Account building for the Fall 2009 semester is now active.

Click here to create or reactivate your account on the iLab domain. Once you accept the Rutgers Acceptable Use Policy, that will give you a form asking for your name, student number, date of birth, and "Account type". For "Account type", select the class you are taking, such as "cs111" for 111, "cs205" for 205, and so on. If you are not registered in any section of that class, the system will not create the account.

If you try to build an account and it fails, please send mail to help@cs.rutgers.edu with your name, the course (and section, if you know it), and what error message you got when you tried to build the account. I'll build the account by hand (and see about getting your bug fixed.)

NOTES:

If you had a cs unix account in the past, the new account you build will have the same username (and password and email address) as you had before. If you haven't had a cs unix account in the past, you will be asked to set a password. The cs unix and eden password repositories are NOT the same -- you can have different passwords on cs unix machines and eden, and in fact this is strongly recommended.
If you're building your first-ever account on the iLab domain, your account may not be immediately active -- there may be up to a one-hour delay in being able to to log in. This is due to the process of distributing new password entries to all our password servers. If you cannot log in properly more than an hour after you've used the account-building, please send to help@cs.rutgers.edu.

Thank you for your patience!
