Please note that lightweight accounts are no longer created automatically for people leaving CERN.
If you need an alternative authentication method, e.g. to access your tax certificates, please link an external account from the new CERN Users Portal, using the "Linked Accounts" tab.

The password change pages have been moved to the new CERN Users Portal.

Computing E-Groups Creation

To request the creation of a new computing group, please contact the service-desk@cern.ch specifying:

  • The name of an existing E-group to convert to a computing group.
    • If the E-group does not exist yet, you can create it through the E-Groups application. Please note that normal group naming conventions apply: groups with a 2-letters name exist for historycal reasons, but creating new ones is no longer possible.
  • The name of the administrators group. This must be an existing e-group, set as administrator group of the computing group. The administrators group name should respect the naming convention groupname-admins.
