# About
This page contains a checklist of tasks for new students joining the group.
Please ask other students for help with any of these tasks, and you can always
ask one of the staff members or faculty. Do not hesitate to ask questions!
The instructions for IT resources are only for assistance, for official help
see the [Computing and Communication Services (CCS) Page](https://intranet.iitdh.ac.in:444/CCS.php)
## Basic Email and LDAP:
1. IITDH uses the Google Suite for official email. Please reset your password
as soon as you get access to your account. This username/password will be used
for all Google Suite Tools.
2. You will also be given an [LDAP](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lightweight_Directory_Access_Protocol)
account - this is used to access all non-google resources, like the institute WiFi/LAN,
[Git Repositories](https://gitea.iitdh.ac.in/), FTP service,
3. If you use Linux, [please add the institute repos to your package manager](https://intranet.iitdh.ac.in:444/CCS/FTP/How%20to%20Access%20IITDH%E2%80%99s%20FTP%20in%20Your%20PC.pdf).
This enables your OS to install packages from the local server instead of
having to download all packages from the internet, and greately speeds up installation
and update.
4. We use Slack messenger as a fast and convenient chat tool. See instructions [here](Slack).
## Subscriptions and Permissions:
1. PEG students must make sure that they are subscribed to the `power-students` slack channel
2. PEG students must make sure they are subscribed to the PEG Mailing Email List [here](https://groups.google.com/g/peg-iitdh).
3. Visit the [PEG webpage](https://sites.google.com/iitdh.ac.in/peg-iitdh) and add/update your details there.
4. See the [Events page](https://sites.google.com/iitdh.ac.in/peg-iitdh/events) for past and upcoming events
5. Periodically watch the [Conference Calendar](https://sites.google.com/iitdh.ac.in/peg-iitdh/conference-calendar) to see which conferences are coming up and when the deadlines are. Publishing is the yardstick by which research is measured (whether one agrees with it or not).
6. Check that you have access to the [Shared Drive on Google Drive](https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1koNxDj-tU745lC0TRbBFPOU3eoFuiHjK?usp=sharing) which contains lots of resources related to the group.
7. Learn to use Git and set up your account on [gitea.iitdh.ac.in](gitea.iitdh.ac.in/). See instructions [here](Git)
## Misc:
1. Use Google Drive to backup / store work data regularly - set aside a time to do so each week and make it a habit right at the beginning of your program. Purchase an external hard drive if needed as a second backup.
