Logging into EPA Web Servers

Legacy Content

EPA builds all public web content in the WebCMS. EPA's legacy public access servers still have content, and this content will be maintained until it is transformed and moved into the WebCMS. The following information should be used only for minor updates/maintenance of existing legacy pages; any significant updates or revisions to existing pages should be done in the context of One EPA Web guidance using the WebCMS.

This information DOES NOT apply to the WebCMS. Here's how you access the WebCMS. This information is for www3. This page explains how to log on to your www3 account. It assumes that you have:

Contacted your ADP coordinator and obtained an user id (LAN ID and password);
Been added by your ADP coordinator to the TSSMS account. (TSSMS has been replaced but the action is the same.)

If you are accessing the servers from a computer outside the Agency's network, your ADP coordinator must have requested appropriate access for you.

If you are using SSH/telnet software, you will enter the host name in a location in the software’s logon screen. EPA PCs come with SSH/telnet. You can also use PuTTY.

Start a session by connecting to the host. For example, to logon to the www3, if you are jsmith02:

> ssh jsmith02@buckeye.epa.gov

You will be prompted for your password. Use your EPA password.
