 Dynamic Menu What's This?


The Dynamic Menu displays expanding submenus. When the Dynamic Menu option is on, you will see a right pointing triangle (Expand). When you put the mouse over the menu item, the menu will expand to the right.

If you like this feature, check the Checkbox to the left; otherwise, make sure it is unchecked.

If you use the same computer every time you visit the ITS web pages, we'll be able to remember your menu preferences!

Activate Your AccountActivate Your Network Account

The very first thing you will need to do is activate your network account. Doing so will turn on your access to all network resources such as your O-Zone page. This personalized page logs you in automatically to resources such as your webmail, Self-Service Banner (student services) and Blackboard.

Activating Your Account from Off-Campus

You will need to know 2 pieces of information to activate your account. They are your OID (Otterbein ID) and your 6-number pin. These 2 pieces of information also log you in to your Self-Service Banner to handle all student services on-line. Upon accepted admittance to Otterbein University, you will be mailed your Otterbein ID and pin to activate your network account. Your Otterbein ID is your unique 8-digit number assigned to you by Otterbein and preceded by a capital letter "A" (e.g. A12345678) Once you activate your account, don't forget your password! You might want to write a password hint on a piece of paper until you have it memorized.

Activating Your Account on Campus

Logon to any lab computer and type newuser in the logon box. Leave the password empty. Click Enter.

Open Internet Explorer.

Go to www.otterbein.edu/newuser.

Follow the on-screen directions.

Don't forget your password! You might want to write a password hint on a piece of paper until you have it memorized.
