Usernames

Connecting to a UNIX system requires you to log in to the system. The login process involves entering your username (also called login name) and password. If you have an account on the Research Computing systems, your username (and password) will be the same on all of the systems.

You will be assigned a username that consists of the first letter of your first name and your last name, up to a maximum of eight characters. For example, John Smith would have the username jsmith.

If you have forgotten your username or password on the Research Computing systems, send e-mail to research.computing@dartmouth.edu asking to have your username or password sent to you.
