Additional steps for changing your Staff Password in special circumstances

Follow these instructions:

  1. To change your Login password on Windows 7 or Windows XP, press Ctrl+Alt+Del, select Change Password.... The password changing screen will then be displayed:

    Ensure that the Log on to drop-down menu is set to LUNET (unless you have not yet been migrated to Office 2007 / Exchange E-mail, in which case it should be set to LBORO). Type in your Old password, type in your New password, and type it again to Confirm new password. Click OK. This will change both your Windows password and your Active Directory password, which gives access to your computer, the University network, University e-mail, the University Intranet, the Learn server, and shared and group filestore.

Other Passwords:

When we register you, we also provide you with an Athens www.lboro.ac.uk/library/resources/athens.html username and password, which provides access to a variety of nationally provided data sources (Library databases). See also Eduserv Athens User Obligations at www.eduserv.org.uk/lns/agreements/user-obligations.

Check your original Athens password at http://learn.lboro.ac.uk/blocks/staff_student_resources/athpass.php. You must log in after clicking on the link to see your original Athens password. If you change your Athens password then this link will not show you the changed password.

Change your Athens password at http://auth.athensams.net/my/ (you will need your current Athens username and password).
