All FIB students have an account for accessing the PCs in the labs. Depending on the registered courses, you have different accounts to access Unix servers,  OS laboratories and different Databases servers:

Lecturers may request to FIB for personal/subject accounts for accessing the PCs, through https://peticions.utgcntic.upc.edu/tiquetspeticions/control/main?idEmpresa=103958

PC accounts

For the PCs there are different environments with which we can work with:

  • Windows
  • Linux


After the start-up of one of the systems, it will ask for a username and a password. Students should use the same account they use to access the Racó, and lecturers should use the account that was provided by the FIB in response to their request.

To get to know the work environment, available quotas and everything you need to work on the PC Labs, please see page  Working environment at the PCs
