This page explains how to manage the basics of your account

Changing your password

Change your password by logging into our member site (vortex) and clicking change password

OR

by connecting to luminous ( See Connecting to LUDD's servers) and issuing the following command:

passwd

You will be prompted for your old password, and asked to confirm your new one.

Changing your shell

Shell can be changed from https://cortex.ludd.ltu.se/index2.php

Forwarding your mail

Log in to any of our servers ( See Connecting to LUDD's servers) and run the following commands:

cd ~
echo "[mail-address]" > .forward

where [mail-address] is the mailaddress you want to forward TO.

For example, if I want to forward mail to the address bogus@bogusville.com, I would have run

cd ~
echo "bogus@bogusville.com" > .forward
