    • New Account Type: If you are an offsite user, request a Unix and Windows account
    • SLAC e-mailbox: It is really your choice but whatever you choose be sure to read emails from SLAC. If you work primarily at another institution, you can select None; you can still receive e-mails at USERNAME@slac.stanford.edu, they will simply be forwarded to your primary e-mail account; otherwise, MS Exchange or Unix should probably be selected on the basis of your preferred e-mail client.
    • Requested User ID: This can be anything, but generally some combination of your last name and possibly your first name or initial would be best – this will make it easier for other users to identify who you actually are from files that you create or edit
