 ======Account Management======
+====Preparation====
+Be sure to have your
+[[https://www.hrz.uni-bonn.de/en/all-services/uni-id-identity-management/uni-id-identity-management|Uni-ID]]
+and the password handy. In the case you're creating a new account: Did you activate your Uni-ID on [[https://gosa.gosa.uni-bonn.de/|GOSa]] already? Else do that quickly.
+====Execution====
+On [[https://startup.cs.uni-bonn.de?lang=en|our account creation portal STARTUP]] choose, depending on the situation either ''Apply'' or ''Renew''. You will be aksed to log in using your Uni-ID and to allow transfer of certain necessary information (listed there) to us. Once this has happened, ''Startup'' requests four agreements, e.g. to the user agreement. This done, you can send your account creation/renewal request with a mouse click or screen tap.
+The following depends on your subject(s) of study:
+=== Students of one of the subjects of our institutes as (a) major subject ===
+Your account is now ready. For a newly created account, you have to [[https://pwreset.cs.uni-bonn.de|set a passwort]]. You will also be asked to do the (yearly) safety instructions on this occasion on [[https://wumi.cs.uni-bonn.de/|our Web User Managment Interface]]. There you can also create credentials for some of our services.
+=== Students of other subjects/universities, FFF students, etc. ===
+In all other cases ''Startup'' will provide a PDF file for download. Please print it, sign it twice (see there for the details), then your course instructor will have to co-sign it. Afterwards send it to us - if you like, scanned as e-mail to gsg@cs.uni-bonn.de.
+We will activate your account once we receive it; you'll get a confirmation e-mail to your Uni-ID. Therefore, you need to read your e-mail regularly and to make sure your mailbox size isn't over the quota. As soon as you got that e-mail, your account is ready to use. For a new account you have to set your password using https://pwreset.cs.uni-bonn.de . This will also ask you to do the (yearly) safetey instruction on [[https://wumi.cs.uni-bonn.de/|our Web User Managment Interface]]. There you also can create credentials for some of our services.
+==== Afterwards ====
+Inform from the navigation bar about our offered services. Don't forget, one year later, to renew your account (but you'll get an e-mail reminder 30, 14 and 7 days before expiration). After renewal, you probably will have to renew, on  [[https://wumi.cs.uni-bonn.de/|WUMI]], your saftey instructions and (if in use) your [[en:vpn|OpenVPN]] certificate.
