# Accounts

-SBGrid manages two different types of **Crystal** accounts. For simplicity, we use the same username for both accounts, but each has a different password. The first gives you access to Linux systems in your lab. The second is used to access your Crystal Gmail and other Google services.

# Computers
75 76
SBGrid supports Linux, Mac, and Windows computers in the Harrison & Chou labs.
76 77
77 78
### Linux
78
-Most Linux computers use network accounts, meaning that your home directory is located on a network storage server and is backed up. If you accidentally delete important files, please let us know as soon as possible and we may be able to restore the file for you.

### Mac
83
-Mac computers rely on either network accounts or local accounts. We will soon transition all Mac computers to local accounts because of problems many people have encountered Macs & network accounts.

-For Macs with local accounts, users will have administrative access with permission to install and update software. The SBGrid Installer will be used to access the SBGid software tree and will allow users to install and update the software independently. These computers are backed up via Crashplan, hosted by HMS. If your Mac is not backed up, or you receive warning messages about Crashplan backup failures, please contact us immediately to ensure that no data is lost.
