Join a CollabNet site

To collaborate with others on a CollabNet SourceForge Enterprise 5.0 site, start by getting a user account.

1. If your site authenticates through LDAP, follow these steps. If your site does not authenticate through LDAP, skip to the next set of steps.
   1. In the Log Into CollabNet SourceForge section of the site home page, enter your corporate LDAP user name and password.
      Tip: In most cases, your user name and password are the user name and password with which you log in to your corporate network.
   2. Click Log In.
   3. On the Create Account page, re-enter your LDAP password.
   4. Enter your full name and email address and click Create.
2. If your site does not authenticate through LDAP, follow these steps.
   1. Click Create an Account in the New Users section of the CollabNet SourceForge home page.
   2. On the Create New Account page, enter a user name for your account.
      Note: Your user name must be between 1 and 15 characters long, can contain only alpha-numeric characters without spaces, and must contain at least one letter. The first character must be a letter.
   3. Enter and confirm a password.
      Note: If you select a password that does not meet your organization's password criteria, you will receive an error message that indicates the security requirements that were not met by your selection.
   4. Fill in the rest of the fields and click Create.
3. Check your email at the address that you provided.
