4th June: AIS and NICE/MAIL unique authentication

Over the past few years, the IT department has been in the process of streamlining CERN users' access to all central computing services. The long term goal is to converge on a unique computer account, which will increase computer security and simplify account maintenance.

The next step of this process will occur on 4th June 2007, as of when authenticating on the AIS applications (EDH, HRT, CET, APT, ERT, CRA, Foundation, ...) and on NICE (Windows) and MAIL will be done using the same username and password. As a reminder, this account can also be used on EDMS, INDICO, CDS and SIMBA.

So starting on 4th June 2007, authentication on the AIS applications must be done using your AIS username and your MAIL/NICE password.

Thanks for your understanding,

The AIS and NICE teams
