What is a Network Services ID (NSID)?
All faculty, staff and students at the University of Saskatchewan are issued
a unique Network Services ID (NSID). Your NSID, and it's associated password,
allow you to access most network-based services on campus (such as electronic
mail, computer labs, web servers etc) using a single sign-on.
Your NSID does not automatically give you have access to all services
on campus, but for those services which you are authorized, the same username
and password will grant access.
More detailed documentation is available here.

How can I find out what my NSID is?
If you have an account in one of the computer labs on campus, it is likely
the username you use to access the computers there is your NSID. NSIDs are
6 characters long, in the form abc123.
If you are unsure about what your NSID is, visit either the ITS Help Desk in room
70 Arts or the Student Computing Help Desks in the Main Library, Health Sciences
Library or Arts 110. These locations can give you your NSID. Please have photo ID.
