Logging in to Moodle

Your login id for moodle is same as the CMI login id.

To obtain your password, click on the link "Forgotten your
username or password?". This will take you to a page with two
entry fields. Enter your login ID under "Username" field and click
search. Leave "Email address" blank. Moodle will generate a new
password and send you an email with further instructions.

Log in to Moodle using the new password.

Change the password. Moodle passwords require at least one
each of upper case and lower case letters, numbers and
special characters. For security reasons, please do not use
your main CMI password (the one that you use for ssh to
access.cmi.ac.in or for checking CMI webmail) since Moodle does
not run on an https server.
