About Your UB Conference Account
You may be assigned a conference account, consisting of a UBITName and a corresponding Password, while you are at the University at Buffalo. You should change your account Password as soon as possible.
All account users must follow UB policies:
Sharing accounts or connections is prohibited. As a conference attendee, you are responsible for all actions performed under your account name or connection.
Connecting to the Internet
Set up UB_Secure and connect using your laptop or smartphone whenever you want to access the Internet.
Access without a Laptop
If you do not have a laptop or smartphone with you, use a computer in UB's Public Computing Labs.
Accessing Your Email
UB conference accounts do not include a mailbox. You cannot send or receive email from your conference account. Access another (non-UB) account from your UB conference account by using programs such as SSH or a web-based email program.
