3.5 The Fermilab Helpdesk

The Fermilab Helpdesk (a.k.a. Customer Support) is available to answer questions related to the supported computer systems and software on site. Keep in mind that its first priority is to maintain central systems and networks, and to ensure that Fermilab-supported software is available and usable. Therefore a request which impacts only one individual may not receive immediate attention.

Customer Support is in service Monday through Friday, 9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. You are encouraged to use email for all communications that are not urgent.
