How to set up a Guest Account for Michigan Tech Banweb
What is a Guest Account?
A Guest account is a Michigan Tech guest computing account. It allows someone who is a non-University person the ability to create an ISO userid and password to authenticate to the Michigan Tech computing environment. It does not, however, authorize that person to use any services.
There are two steps in the process that a non-University person must follow to gain access to the Michigan Tech service.
- Set up a Guest Account.
- Be authorized to use the service by his or her student to access the relevant data.
