As more and more information is moving into the myRedDragon portal; you may want to start making it a habit of logging into myRedDragon at least once a day.  An easy way to remind yourself is by setting myRedDragon up as a home page on your browser.  You can do this in addition to your other favorite sites.

Directions for the three most common browers are located here:

Multiple Home pages in Internet Explorer

myRedDragon Online Groups are for students, employees and faculty members at SUNY Cortland. They are not for the general public.

SUNY Cortland currently supports Group use with Leaders who control the Group membership carefully. Leaders are responsible for monitoring their Group Use.

Training on how to navigate and use Groups will start in August, if you cannot wait and would like to start using a group now please contact Hailey M. Ruoff 753-2231

There are lots of benefits to using online groups with your Department or SUNY Cortland organization. 

Here are some of them:

• To store online files – post files, approve user submitted files, make an archive of downloads, its as easy as adding an email attachment – but harder to lose!
• To check user visits and participation – Groups members list shows a list of all people in your group, what access they have and when they last visited, enabling you to keep and monitor usage.
• To archive minutes / agendas / documents – keep losing documents, searching your old emails to find that attachment?? Not with organized Groups – assign a person to archive & post your minutes, notes and documents there for all the group.
• To run discussions – need a place to store comments, feedback, or to run department knowledge shares and discussions. Want to keep it away from your inbox – simply set up a Group Discussion – you can use various topics and threads
• Personalize a Project or Department Group Homepage – you can put links, photographs, images, icons, urgent announcements, important files – all on your group Home Page. Easy to find, easy to use!
• Run your own group for efficient SUNY Cortland communication and Knowledge Sharing This is the biggest advantage. You know how to best set up your local department group or list, so why not request a group now?

A NetID is your online identity at SUNY Cortland.  Your NetID will gain you access to most online resources at SUNY cortland.  You will need your NetID to logon to lab machines, webmail, webct and bannerweb.  Webmail, webct and bannerweb are now all accesible through one login – the myRedDragon portal  ( http://myreddragon.cortland.edu ) 

FOR ALL STUDENTS:

Starting Auguest 20, 2008, your NetID will gain you access to bannerweb, webct and email, you will now have a single username and password to access all campus resources. 

Students no longer use their C # and their username when signing on to both Webmail and their NetID. It is now their firstname.lastname  If any students are trying to log on, and they receive an error message that their password is no longer valid, they should try, for example:

Username: sherry.ellis
Password: theirusualpassword (if this doesn’t work, try using your last name and the last four digits of your C# – example: ellis9999)

Starting August 5th 2008.

If your eLearning session times out, or you logout from eLearning, you will need to close the webct window, and go back to the campus portal, if you portal session has also timed out, you will need to log back in and repeat the steps to access webct.

Please do not attempt to logon via the webct logon screen.

Be sure you are using you NetID not your C# to login. (What is my NetID)

IF YOU HAVE RECENTLY CHANGED YOUR PASSWORD, PLEASE WAIT 10 MINUTES BEFORE LOGGING INTO myredDragon.

Have you logged into webmail, a lab machine or the portal before?

If you did, than your password was most likely set at that time, if you do not remember your password, and you have not set your password recovery profile, than you will need to call the helpdesk, if you have set up your password reset profile you may reset your password (http://colfax.cortland.edu/passwordprofile) and try logging again.

If you have never logged into webmail, a lab machine or the portal before?

Your password should be the default of your last name and the last four digits of your C-number.

I have tried these steps and nothing is working:

If you still cannot login, you can try and login using your old bannerweb pin with your NetID username (firstname.lastname), if you do not remember your password, you will have to call the technology help center to get your NetID password reset.
