NCCS User Administration Request Form
(A GSFC Account Request Document)

N.B. You may wish to review the General Instructions and Information for the NCCS User Administration Request Form, prior to completing the form.)

Detailed (item-by-item) User Administration Request Form Instructions are also available to assist in the completion of this form. (You may find it helpful either to read through all of the instructions before attempting to complete the form, or to read the instructions item-by-item as you complete the form. Each item of the form links to its counterpoint in the instructions.)

Because of the need to have the signatures from the NCCS User Administration Request Form on file, the form must be printed in order to be completed. Please print or type all information. No request can be processed unless all required information is provided. Incomplete forms will be returned to the user for completion.

Section I: Type of Request

Please check only one of the three blanks in this section:

1a.  ___  Userid Addition:

     Do you already have a userid on a NASA computing resource?   Yes    No   (circle one)

If you answered, "No" to the previous question, please specify your preferred userid on the blanks provided at the end of this item.

If you answered, "Yes" to the previous question, please provide the userid information for all active NASA userids to which you currently have access. (If necessary, use a separate sheet to include more NASA userids. If you are unsure of the Setup Date, please provide an approximate date.)

     NASA Userid:             NASA Location:           UID Number:     Setup Date:
     -----------------------  -----------------------  --------------  --------------

This information will help the NCCS to avoid duplicating new userid processing (especially for the processing of personnel screening for foreign nationals) and to determine what should be used as your NCCS userid.

          Userid Addition:     __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ (specify a userid)

You may specify a preferred userid, however, see the Instructions concerning the NCCS Userid Policy. If you would prefer, leave this item blank and the NCCS will determine what should be used as your NCCS userid.
