As long as you are a registered student, you can have an account to use the school's computers. This account is not needed to use the PCs in the computer labs, but it is needed to long onto the computers with names: solix, serss1, xlab1, servax, servms. The account that you get will give you access to all of these computers.
To get the account, you must connect to the servms computer. When you are prompted for a user name, type the single word (no spaces) NEWSTUDENT. You will then be asked some information like name and student number. Then you will be given a user name and a password. Write them down! Then you will be logged off the computer. You won't be able to access the computers for another 24 hours, while your account is being activated.
In the future, you will use your user name and password to log onto any of the named computers.
Once you have a school account, it is good for many computers here at FIU: servms, servax, serss1, solix. However you have two passwords, one for servms and servax, the other for serss1 and solix. You should change both passwords to something other than your student number.

set password
in order to change your password. You will be asked for three things:
From the command prompt on serss1 and solix, issue the command
passwd
in order to change your password. You will be asked for three things:
Many people are having difficulty getting the <P align="right"> working. The problem is with the header tags that start the paragraphs: Do not include the header tags inside the paragraph. Do it this way
<h1>Heading</h1> <P align="right"> Paragraph </P>
This will get it working. The same applies for "left" and "center".
