New Protocol for Network Passwords

At the end of February 2008, the University announced a decision to implement a new protocol for network usernames and passwords.  This new protocol went effect on Wednesday, March 12, 2008 at 7:00 am.

One of the provisions of this new protocol requires that all network passwords expire after 180 days.  To change your network password, click this link and follow the instruction: CHANGE MY PASSWORD.

• For PC users, the password you will change is the password you use to login to your computer every morning
• For Mac users, the password you will change is the password you use to login to your email.
• Admin (aka SIS, PLUS, Reflections) passwords are not affected by the new protocol

Please contact the Technology Services Help Desk at (205) 665-6520 with any questions or if you experience any problems changing your UM network password.  You may also send an email to helpdesk@montevallo.edu.
