If software requires a license, you must pay for that license.

If you need a software install or upgrade, or if you need hardware, such as zip drives or scanners, installed, please contact the MNet HELP Desk by calling 410-502-6638 or send an e-mail to mnet@jhmi.edu and we will arrange a time to do this for you. Installations of this type may require two weeks to schedule.

Please be courteous on the network. Unauthorized access into areas where you have not been granted permission is prohibited and may be grounds for dismissal.
