| When your UMIACS account is first created there are two password that are initially set.
| |
| | |
| ==== Windows ====
| |
| :This password authenticates against our Windows domain and is set when you first create your UMIACS account.
| |
| :It control access for the following resources:
| |
| ::*Windows computers
| |
| ::*[[exchange]] e-mail
| |
| ::*[[VPN]] Authentication
| |
| | |
| ==== [[Kerberos]] ====
| |
| :This password authenticates against our Kerberos Server and is set when you first create your UMIACS account.
| |
| :It controls access for the following resources:
| |
| ::*UNIX/Linux computers
| |
| ::*[[UNIXEmail|IMAP]] e-mail
| |
| ::*[[ApplicationResource|AR]]-controlled resources (wikis, [[SourceCodeManagement|repositories]], webapps)
| |
| | |
| ==== [[Jira]] ====
| |
| :By default [[Jira]] authenticates against the kerberos server, however it is possible to set Jira to it's own separate password. If you change your password through the Jira web interface it will create a '''new''', '''separate''' password, and no longer authenticate against the kerberos server. Changing your Jira password DOES NOT change any other UMIACS password.

| == Changing your password ==
| |
| There are currently two ways to change your UMIACS passwords:
| |
| *Via the web interface tool on the UMIACS Intranet at:
| |
| :https://intranet.umiacs.umd.edu/cgi-bin/changepass
| |
| *Stop by the [[HelpDesk|UMIACS Helpdesk]], in room 3142 AVW
| |
| ::If you plan on stopping by the UMIACS Helpdesk, please make sure to bring photo ID
| |
| ==== Password Requirements ====
| |
| #Must be atleast 8 characters in length
| |
| #Must have alteast 3 of the following character classes: lower-case letters, upper-case letters, numbers, punctuation, special characters
| |
| #Cannot be the same as any of your previous 5 passwords
| |
| #Cannot contain a string that is part of your username
| |
| ==== Off-site or out-of-state users ====
| |
| UMIACS Staff requires positive identification before we'll honor a request to change a password. In the event that you are unable to change your password via the methods above, send an email to staff@umiacs.umd.edu detailing your situation. Typically, we'll ask you to get in touch with your PI/advisor, as they should be able to identify you. They will work with staff to reset your password on your behalf, and then communicate it to you in a secure manner.
