Please use [[https://startup.informatik.uni-bonn.de/?lang=en|our online account creation system]]. ===="My Enrollment Number is not in the system"==== Historic message when the system didn't believe you study Informatics etc. See next paragraph. ===="According to our records you do not study Informatics etc."==== This is usually the case when you were not yet enrolled while we got the list of the students. Please send us a verifiable enrollment certificate (PDF) via e-mail. You can create that yourself quickly on [[https://studienservice.uni-bonn.de|Studienservice]]. (Login there, click "Notifications" → "Studienbescheinigung (auch für BaFöG)") **RWTH Students (B-IT Media Informatics students)**: please send us your RWTH enrollment certificate instead (download in RWTHonline -> Documents; after enrollment at RWTH). ==== "When do I have to renew my account?" ==== The CS or b-it identifier must be extended by 30 November of each year. The extension period is the beginning of the winter semester until the 30th of November of the same year. ** Please renew your account within the regular extension periods! ** ===="My Account has expired"==== If it was not possible for you to renew your account in due time: If you have a Uni-Bonn Uni-ID (most of you!), you can re-enable your account from the [[https://startup.informatik.uni-bonn.de/login?lang=en|renewal page on startup]]. Follow the link [[https://startup.informatik.uni-bonn.de/reactivate?lang=en|forgotten or expired?]]. This is the fastest way! All others (guest auditors and similar) please send us an e-mail with your [[https://gsg.informatik.uni-bonn.de/eecdoc|eletronic enrollment certificate]]. This procedure also applies to students who forgot to extend their accounts at the beginning of the semester. ==== "I forgot my password" ==== Please use the [[https://pwreset.informatik.uni-bonn.de/en|password reset page]]. ==== "I forgot my account name" ==== Please use the [[https://pwreset.informatik.uni-bonn.de/en|password reset page]] (2nd option). If you still remember the password, you don't need to actually change the password after you've been reminded of the login name. ==== "My Uni-ID isn't registered with my account, so the password reset does not work" ==== Please send us an e-mail with your [[https://gsg.informatik.uni-bonn.de/eecdoc|eletronic enrollment certificate]] from your Uni-ID e-mail. If all fits, we'll change your registered E-mail address to your Uni-ID. ==== "I lost my paper application" ==== For a //renewal request//, simply download a new one from the [[https://startup.informatik.uni-bonn.de/login?lang=en|application server]]. For a //new account//, send us an [[ https://gsg.informatik.uni-bonn.de/eecdoc|electronic enrollment certificate]] as e-mail. ==== "The password is too easy" ==== To construct a password for a computer science / b-it identifier, the following criteria must be met: * The password must contain a minimal of 12 characters. * The password must contain at most 127 characters. * The first 8 characters must contain: - Latin uppercase letters : A, B, C, ... Z - Latin lowercase letters : a, b, c, ... z - Arabic numbers : 0, 1, 2, ... 9 - not alphanumeric characters : #?~:;,.{}()/_=%+- * The password must not be part of your login name or your correct name. * The character categories should appear mixed (not as in "1Hello2"). * Ingredients should not be found in a dictionary or dictionary. * Only characters from the above character category are allowed (1-4). A little tip: think of a word and modify it: Example: Bleistift (engl. Pencil) -> B1ejsT.ft ("k" becomes "1", "i" becomes "j" and ".")
