UNO Faculty and Staff receive the following default set of accounts:

• E-Mail
• Local Area Network (LAN)
• Moodle
• SharePoint
• Webstar

Note: Individuals who are under contract to work with a specific department or unit and who are otherwise not affiliated with UNO are not automatically issued computer accounts because their employment information is not entered by Human Resource Management. All appropriate accounts must be explicitly requested by the supervisor.

PeopleSoft Security Request:

Employees requiring security to Webstar or the Financials system must have their supervisor contact the person responsible for granting security in the area in which access is needed and follow that department’s procedure for gaining access to its data. To request PeopleSoft security, contact the appropriate person from the following list:

How to obtain a generic account:

A generic account is used for an event or a class in which non-UNO participants need to access the UNO-domain, but not to the UNO mail system. To request a Generic Account, complete the following Web form. When submitted, an email will be sent to HelpDesk@uno.edu. Access to the request form requires your assigned LAN username and password.

All students who register and pay their fees on time are automatically assigned accounts for:

• Local Area Network (LAN)
• Moodle
• E-Mail
• Webstar

A Student's LAN username and password may be obtained by:

Visiting the web page http://useraccount.uno.edu and clicking the first link. The LAN account can also be obtained by visiting the Help Desk with a photo ID (in room 101-T in the Computer Center), or by calling the Help Desk at (504) 280-HELP (4357).

Your username will be a maximum of eight characters in length and will consist of the first character from your first name, perhaps followed by your middle initial, followed by your last name, and in some cases, a numeric suffix to differentiate between similar names. All usernames have a maximum of eight characters.
