Message 1: Creating accounts in Oracle and MySQL
Dear CSE 3330/5330 students: It seems that each of you will have to request n account individually for Oracle and MySQL from helpdesk@uta.edu. When I requested the accounts for the classes, I got the following reply: Dear Ramez, Unfortunately, due to security purposes, we are unable to activate Oracle and Sql accounts for your classes: CSE3330 CSE4331 CSE5330 CSE5331 In order to activate a Oracle or SQL account the request would need to come from the individual student - we then in turn, would send them instructions on how to access Oracle/ SQL as well as their initial password from their student account to either their Mavs email address or email address we have on file. The Omega/Gamma account is already activated on the students accounts their current NetID and password is also valid for these two accounts. (For forgotten NetID passwords, go to http://www.uta.edu/selfservice). They will need to use SSH (Secure Shell) to be able to login to the servers. How to connect to OMEGA/GAMMA: http://www.uta.edu/oit/cs/unix/ssh/Secure-Shell-Client.php For more information about Omega and Gamma: http://www.uta.edu/oit/cs/unix/UNIX--Linux.php Thank you. ******************************** Robin Baker Help Desk Dr. Elmasri
