The Genoret Database is protected through a two levels login and password system.

  1. the Website http://www-genoret.u-strasbg.fr/genoret
  2. the SQL relational database hosting your data
 For these two levels you can use the same login and password
 You do no more need to enter two times the password.

How to login

  • When you connect to the Genoret Database Website you'll be ask to enter your login and password.
  • Then you see the Genoret Database Welcome Page
      • Navigate freely ... you won't be asked for login and password.
      • After a time out of at least two hours of non activ connection you could be invited to login again.
  • Please logout if you stop using the database.

Other Wesites with again login and password

Some External Databases are connected to the Genoret Database.

If you need to access directly these databases you migh be ask to give again a login and password.

As Genoret Member you are already registered in these databases but we cannot take the responsability to give you an automatic access without using the standard login and password protocol of these external databases.
