Logins and Passwords for Cabrillo Courses

There is a new username for students.

The new student login will be the same as their WebAdvisor login. Registered Cabrillo students will be able to use their student ID and their Web Advisor password to login on Canvas, HawkNet, Poly, printing, and all computers on campus.

Remember that computer logins and passwords are usually case-sensitive.


The temporary generic student login and password

This is the login and password — which will only work for the first two weeks of the semester (or, in summer, for the first couple of days of the term) — you enter when you first sit down in front of a computer on campus, such as any computer in a classroom or in the CTC (the computer lab). You can use this temporary login and password to gain access to the Cabrillo network until you get your personal student login and password.

The temporary generic Cabrillo student login (for spring 2020) is: spring20
The temporary generic Cabrillo student password (for spring 2020) is: cabrillo


Your Cabrillo student ID number (same as WebAdvisor)

Your student ID number is a 7-digit number found on your registration receipt. It is not your Social Security number. Your student ID number is the same as your your WebAdvisor login.

You enter your Webadvisor login and password when you first sit down in front of a computer on campus. This grants you access to the programs available to you as a student, depending on what courses you are enrolled in. This also gives you Internet access.


Your webhawks.org (FTP) login and password

This is the login and password you enter into an FTP program (such as Fetch or CoreFTP) to connect to the webhawks.org server, allowing you to upload files to, or download files from, the server.

If you are taking more than one course this term that uses the webhakws.org server, you will have a different webhawks.org login and password for each course.

If you have added the course late with an add code, your webhawks.org account will not be created until a day or two after you process the add code.

How to get your webhawks.org login and password:

  1. If you do not know your Webhawks login (user name) for the class, here is how to determine your user name:
    1. Your Webhawks user name is made up of your course number and your student ID number. First it starts with the Cabrillo course number, all capitals, with a hyphen (for example, “DM-60”, or “DM-61”). Next it contains your student ID number. Your Webhawks usern name contains no spaces, and is case sensitive (all letters must be uppercase).
    2. For example, the Webhawks user name for a student in the DM60 class who has a student ID number of 1234567 would be “DM-601234567” (without the quotes).
  2. Your Webhawks password is initially set to be your student ID number.

How to determine your personal homepage URL on webhawks.org:

  1. The URL (Web address) of your homepage on the webhawks.org server is determined by your Webhawks login (user name).Your URL will start with "http://webhawks.org/~" and then end with your Webhawks login.
  2. For example, the Webhawks user name for a student in the DM60 class, whose student ID number is 1234567, would be “DM-601234567”. So her homepage URL would be "http://webhawks.org/~DM-601234567/" (the slash at the end is optional).

Put these settings into your FTP program to connect to the webhawks.org Web server:

Server name/Host: webhawks.org

Login/User name: (same as your student ID number):

Password: (same as your student ID number):

Protocol: SFTP or SSH

Leave all other settings blank or leave the defaults as is.
