 If you are a UD community member, your cluster username and password are the same as your UDelNet ID
 and password. You may change your UDelNet ID or password on the [[http://www.udel.edu/network|UD network page]], but it is only synced at noon and midnight daily.

 an initial password for you. It is based on the unique, 4-digit numerical identifier IT assigns to you. You can [[https://www.hpc.udel.edu/user/password.php|change your password]] via [[http://www.hpc.udel.edu|UD IT HPC]] page by clicking on the ''login'' button at the top of the page and enter your //hpcguest//<<//uid//>> and current password.
