Hello again everyone!
Got this question from some of you: what to do if my unix account is expired?
This is detailed in SLAC IT service webpage here:
https://it.slac.stanford.edu/support/KB0010155#mcetoc_1gahnk9gp23
But in short, as long as you remember your old password, you can reset your password even if it has expired from this link:
https://unix-password.slac.stanford.edu/chpw/kpasswd1.pl
Just FYI: I think everyone has a unix account enabled even if you might think you never used it.
If you don't remember your unix password, I would suggest using the same password you set for the Windows account (or the password you set to use SDF for the first time) since it's same by default, I believe.
If you still cannot remember the password, you can submit the IT service desk ticket (find the link from hte IT service webpage, the first link I shared above).

Subject: Transition to S3DF
Dear all!
As you heard from me or in some meetings, we are transitioning to S3DF.
If you don't care computing, you can discard this email 🙂
1. Join our slack workspace. if you don't know what it is, ask me 🙂
2. Enable "coact"
* please send a request to enable coact unless you have already done so through the link https://coact.slac.stanford.edu/
* Enabling coact also enables your Unix account on S3DF if it is not done so.
* You have to send a request, unless you already did, even if you S3DF account has been already enabled.
* After your request is approved, wait for a few hours and try to log onto S3DF (how-to log in? keep reading)
1. Check your unix account is valid
* While S3DF uses your Unix account, SDF used Windows account and it's possible that your unix account password has expired.
* Try logging onto rhel6-64 ... "ssg [log in to unmask]" ... if this works, your unix account is good to go.
1. Read our Wiki and learn how/what to do
* Our wiki is here: https://NuSlac.github.io/ComputingWiki
* Note the disk filesystem is very similar but separate (e.g. your home directory is different)
* Do let Kazu know if you want to occupy more than 1TB under /sdf/group/neutrino/$USER space
* Do read about computing resources on S3DF and how to request + recommendations on what to request
Happy computing!
Kazu
