User management

The computer center creates and manages the computer center user accounts. Students, employees and other authorized users receive access to a variety of central services of the computer center with their computer center account. In addition to linking and maintaining user data, user management also includes managing access rights to network drives, printers and other resources in the university network, as well as controlling access to external services via Shibboleth.

The RZ user ID is assigned for a period of time during which you are authorized to use the system in accordance with our user regulations. The user regulations stipulate that you must notify us if you lose your user authorization. As this is often forgotten, we have established a procedure for checking validity, details of which can be found on the pages of the RZ documentation.

Students usually receive their user ID by post from the Student Secretariat after enrolment. Employees and other authorized users must apply for their user account.

To change your password, log in to the computer center's service portal. If you have forgotten your password, you can obtain a new one by presenting a photo ID at the RZ-Helpdesk in the computer center.
