Click next and it should take you to this screen:
Type in your Kettering Windows username and password in the appropriate spots. NOTE: If your Windows password is either expired or about to expire, it will not be able to successfully connect. If you cannot make it to campus to change your password on one of the lab computers, call the helpdesk at x8324.
If you want to, you may check the box to remember this password. Click on connect, and after the initial connection you should be all set. In order to connect, you may either go into the “Network and Sharing center” and click on “Connect to a Network” on the left pane, or if your start menu has the option, Start>Connect To.
