username:
- students: student number
- staff: hro email initial i.e email: blissetl@hr.nl -> username: blissetl
password: the password hro offered, which is also the one you use to connect to the Eduroam

In the docs you will see an Icon with a greenlock

Click the icon: and click "Request Privileges"

That should be it. The lock in the docs should turn to yellow and become open.

All the software available can be installed via the WdKA app store, accessible via the WDKA icon in the docs.

Check from time to time the "Updates" section of WdKA app store. As new updates my become available. If available, update them!

The macs must be restarted frequently, as this is the only way to keep the machine up-to-date (it only receives updates when it boots).
