Overview
The Austin Active Directory is available for use by students, faculty and staff at the university. It uses the UT EID for authentication and does not require another login name/password. Members of the campus community can use the same name and password login for UT Direct, ITS Web services, and on-campus computers connected to the Active Directory.
Features
- Departments no longer need to create or manage login names, but can rely on the existing structure supporting the EID
- Campus members can use the same name and password for UT Direct, administrative computing Web services, and on-campus Windows computers
- Departments can participate in this service without making a large hardware, software, and staff investment to establish a departmental directory service
Cost
Austin Active Directory is available at no cost to participating departments.
