===== First Time Linux Login (creating home directory) =====

If you try to log in on the linux computer and it won't let you in, and you know your username and password are correct, you probably don't have a home directory created yet.

1) Using putty, ubuntu, or some way to access/use linux systems, SSH into the directory with the command "ssh firstname.lastname@trogdor.atmos.und.edu"

2) When prompted if you want to continue connection, enter "yes"

And your home directory should be created and you should be able to log in now.
