The U of C term for this is a "hull account". It's very similar to an "identity" in Userbase. The procedure is to request the hull account from Julie Irvin ([email protected]). You will need to provide the following information: Full name Date of Birth Contact email address Relation to the CI (eg who are you working with, sort of sponsorship). This will let us create a hull account. The account allows for authentication only. That means any service the person wants needs to be added individually (usually via the Grouper system). If someone needs a access to the normal suite of privileges that come with a CNet ID, then they will also contact Julie Irvin but will need to provide more information (such as SSN and resume). Let me know if you need more information. David Forero System Administrator Computation Institute University of Chicago
