  1. Access to all Google Apps services available at LBNL (e.g. Gmail, Calendar, Docs, Sites, etc.) See http://lbl.gov/google for more information.
  2. A Berkeley Lab email address, ("[email protected]"), that delivers to a Lab Gmail account with 25GB of free storage
  3. An Enterprise Directory (LDAP) username, that is used to sign in to many services at the Lab, including: Gmail, Google Docs, LETS, EH&S Training, etc.

Passwords: New employees typically (ideally) receive their LDAP passwords from the Badge Office when they receive their badges. Some call the Help Desk for a password.  Passwords are set to expire every 180 days.  Notifications are sent out 28 days before, 14 days before and every day within 7 days of expiration. There is no grace period login - the  Help Desk will have to intervene if all notifications are ignored.  (Active Directory Passwords also are set to expire after 180 days - notification is provided as part of membership to AD when you login close to the expiration date).
