The IT systems at YNiC are separate from the University systems, and are different from these and some other systems you may be used to in some important ways. All new users at YNiC are provided with a computer account at YNiC. If you already have a university account your YNiC login name will be the same as the university login name. However these two accounts are separate and so have different passwords. If you change a password on one system, it will not automatically change on the other. The computers you will be using at YNiC are neither wholly stand alone machines nor “dumb” terminals, but you can use any machine and see the same data and system set up.
