Use of the FileGuard Multi-user System

Multi-user system FileGuard allows us to keep track of the actual FCRC instrument and computer usage. It is installed on all the FCRC MAC computers. Please LOG ON to the system at the beginning of your work and LOG OFF from the system when you are done. Your account will be charged hourly fee dependent on the real time usage of the instruments. Use of the computers is free of charge.

To LOG ON:

  • Select your "RU-Login" from the list shown on the login screen.

  • Type your password.

  • Click "OK" button.

To LOG ON with a particular login id for the first time:
  • Select your "RU-Login" from the list shown on the login screen.

  • Click the "PASSWORD" button.

  • Enter "first two letters from the login and 123" (for example for "smitha" it will be "sm123") into the "OLD PASSWORD" field.

  • Chose your permanent password (there is no restrictions on password length or characters used) and enter this password into both "NEW PASSWORD" and "CONFIRMATION" fields.

  • Click "OK" button.

  • Use your permanent password every next time your login to the system.

  • Be sure to do it on the FACSort computer, which we use to update the passwords on all the FCRC computers. Password information gets updated every Monday.

To LOG OFF:
  • Hold "Apple key" and click "L".

  • Wait until the login screen will appear. (The login screen contains the list of login IDs shown on the black background.)

PLEASE DO NOT FORGET TO LOG OFF TO AVOID EXTRA CHARGES!
