Getting an account
Apart from registering with a VO, a user must also have an account on a User Interface machine (UI) in order to access the Grid. Such a machine has Grid command-line tools and libraries installed to enable the user to work with the Grid, configured appropriately for the VO and the local Grid environment. To obtain such an account, a local system administrator must be contacted, either at the user's own site.
It is also possible for a user to install the UI software on his own machine, as described on the page Installing a gLite User Interface.
