Novell Network

When a student becomes a current student (enrolled in a course and fees paid), an account will be allocated automatically. The account provides access to Swinburne Novell network and allows storage space of up to 200 megabytes. Access to the network requires your student ID number and your date of birth in the format of yymmdd (y=year, m=month, d=day). Students are advised to change their password as soon as possible.

Login to the Novell Network and Lab PCs

  • Enter your student ID number and password in the Novell Login window.
  • Ensure that you are in the correct context (Click on the Advanced button). If you are in Foundation or IE then your Context should be Foundation.Student.Kuching.Sarawak
  • Leave the Servers blank.
  • Just press enter again once the window login is displayed.
  • For PC access without Novell, just check on the Workstation Only checkbox and press enter (no password required)

Blackboard Login

The students will be using Blackboard to access lecture materials and announcements from their lecturers.  This login is the seven digits of your student ID number, and the password is your date of birth in the format of ddmmyy (y=year, m=month, d=day).
