MILNET produces that infamous TAC login xxx. TAC MILNET is run out of the University of Southern California. USC is the ISI master dial up. I would also like to point out that the Department of Defense tends to frown on people browsing through there system. With that in mind, here is a basic overview of MILNET operations. : :Logging On: : MILNET can be reached over through the "nets" or can be directly connected to by dialing 1-800-368-2217 or 213-306-1366. The later is the ISI master dial up. Most military bases connect through the 800 dial up owned by AT&T. ISIE MASTER LOGON PROCEDURE ---------------------------- 1> call 213-306-1366 2> when the phone stops ringing you are connected 3> enter location number (9 digits) + 1 or 0 4> hang up and it will call you 5> pick up the phone and hit the '*' on your phone 6> hit a carriage return on the computer 7> at the 'what class?' prompt hit RETURN 8> then a 'go' prompt will appear and log on as you would the 800 number. MILNET LOGIN PROCEDURE ----------------------- > When you first connect you will see: 'WELCOME TO DDN. FOR OFFICIAL USE ONLY.TAC LOGIN CALL NIC 1-800-235-3155 FOR HELP WRPAT TAC 113 #:36 > the person logging on types: @o 1/103 YOU ALWAYS TYPE @o then other connections are: ISIA 3/103 ISIB 10:3/52 ISID 10:0/27 ISIE 1/103 (THE EXAMPLE) ISIF 2/103 VAX A 10:2/27 > Next you will see a 'USER-ID' prompt. The first 4 characters vary but it is is always followed by a '-' and what ever connection you choose. User-Id: (example) CER5-ISIE or MRW1-ISIE > The first three letters are the initials of the user followed by a random number (1-9). Access Code: (example) 2285UNG6A or 22L8KK5CH > An access code will never contain a ( 1, 0, G, Z). @ USERNAME + PASSWORD IE USERNAME SAC.512AREFW-LGTO THE USERNAME EXPLANATION: ------------------------- The first 3 letters in the example given above are SAC. This stands for Strategic Air Command, a branch of the Air Force. Following that is a "." Then the unit number and the prime mission. In this case 512AREFW", (512th AIR REFUELING WING). Then a '-' and the Individual Squadron name 'LGTO' (LOGISTICS GROUND TRANSPORTATION OPERATIONS), a fancy name for the motor pool. The password will not be echoed back and should be entered after the username. The new user password as a default is: NEW-UZER-ACNT. : :Options: : PROGRAMS AVAILABLE TO SAC USERS: ------------------------------- ADUTY aids in management of additional duty assignments.
