Accessing databases from off campus- Staff Status

Unlike access to databases on campus, using databases off campus requires that you obtain a database-specific username and password. 

NOTE: If you are taking an online class (a Sullivan University Global Online class), the  logon for the online class is DIFFERENT than the logon you use for remote access to databases. The online class login uses a campus code. Follow the directions below to access the databases. Click here for information for logging on to ONLINE CLASSES.        

NOTE: We have had a number of users reporting problems when using the America Online (AOL) browser screen. If you are using AOL, you will need to switch your browser screen to the Microsoft Internet Explorer (Microsoft IE) browser. To go to Microsoft IE, minimize the AOL browser and look for the icon to Microsoft IE on your desktop (it will be a big, blue E). If not on your desktop, go to the START menu, then PROGRAMS to find.

Using databases from off campus: From the Database menu option, select "Remote Access".  A password box will pop-up.    Directions for entering information in the password box are below.  Once in the Remote Access screen, follow the directions for accessing the desired database.

Entering data into Remote Access screen password box:  Depending on what browser you are using, or what operating system is on your computer, you may get one of two pop-up boxes.

Type 1 - Username and Password

The first type will give you entry boxes for just your username and password.

  1. Type domain\username into the User Name field (if you do not know what your domain is, see the list below).

  • For Sullivan Louisville, Ft. Knox and Lexington:
    SUSCORP\yourusername

  • For Louisville Tech :  SUSCORP\yourusername

  • For Spencerian Louisville and Lexington:  SUSCORP\yourusername

    If you do not type your domain and a "\" in front of your username, the server doesn't know where to look for your account, so it will not log you in.

  1. Type your password into the Password field

If you do not know what your username and password are, you can contact the Sullivan University IT Helpdesk (502-456-6504ext410, 1-800-844-1354ext410, or helpdesk@sullivan.edu).

Type 2 - Username, Password, & Domain

The next type will give you entry boxes for your username, password, and domain.

  1. Type your user name into the User Name field

  2. Type your password into the Password field

  3. Type your campus name into the Domain field (if you do not know your domain, see list below).
