CA Hawkins Computer Laboratory

User Accounts: The Hawkins Computer Laboratory is for the use of students enrolled in CIVL3***, CIVL4***, CIVL5*** or PMGT**** units of study in the School of Civil Engineering.

Your regular unikey and password can be used to log into the INTERNAL domain which will give you access to the same shared drive as in the access computer labs.

Users with login problems may need to synchronise their password. Students can also change their password.

Printing: The school provides a small free printing quota of 300 pages for undergrads and 500 pages for postgrads. This free quota is to enable you to print a small number of essential assignments or handouts during the semester, but it is not designed to give unrestricted access to large volumes of lecture notes, manuals or other documents. Please use your free quota with care, as extra pages will not be added to accounts this semester, nor is “my account ran out of credit” an acceptable reason for submitting an assignment late.

Internet Access: Students can access up the 42 MB of free internet use in conjunction with the free cache allowance in the uniwide access labs – (http://www.usyd.edu.au/ict/switch/labs/howto.shtml#internet)
