Account (User ID, generally user name and password)
For many services (e. g. TUGRAZonline, VPN access, email, library, …) members of Graz University of Technology need only one account (unified login or single credentials), which you can generally (see below) set up yourself immediately in TUGRAZonline with a OTP (often still incorrectly referred to as PIN - OTPs, like TANs and unlike PINs, are only valid exactly once) via any Internet connection.
Please note that after changing the password in TUGRAZonline - especially if you have saved it in various applications - you must also change it in all these applications (e. g. VPN and email client, SMTP authentication, webmail, portal access, …) or always use the changed password there.
Passing on the account (also to other employees or colleagues) or a use that contradicts the operating and usage regulations of the ZID of Graz University of Technology is not permitted and can result in the withdrawal of the account!
Attention:
The username you choose when creating an account cannot be changed later, but is independent of the email address and is now visible in some systems, so choose it wisely! You will keep the user name even if you get another profile, e. g. a staff account in addition to the student account. Deletion of an account is not provided for outside the account termination procedure (ATP); the account termination procedure is triggered, for example, by the end of the service contract.
The username is always to be written in lower case, the passwords are case sensitive!
There is a separate page for forgotten or expired passwords.
