In the COKA Cluster we do not use passwords, users authentication is managed by **Public-key authentication**. To know how the login process will be managed see: [[users:login|Cluster Login]] or in general to have more information on Public-key authentication: [[https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SSH/OpenSSH/Keys]]

The e-mail you use to request the account will be added to a **mailing-list** which will be used only by the COKA Cluster administrators to inform users about the Cluster status (e.g. Shutdowns due to maintenance, hardware failures, newly installed software, ecc...)
