Welcome to the RBG-Helpdesk!

What kind of assistance do we offer?

The Rechnerbetriebsgruppe (RBG) maintaines the infrastructure of the Faculties of Computer Science and Mathematics and provides IT-Support for them. The Helpdesk is the first point of contact for questions to the RBG.

Mainly the helpdesk is responsible for problems with the hard- and software of the RBG, which includes 

• the workspaces in the Rechnerhalle 
• the workspaces in the offices 
• the Xerox-Printers 
• WLAN-problems within the Uni-Network 
• VPN-Connection to the TUM 
• set up of the RBG certificate
  Furthermore the helpdesk maintains two websites. The Wiki xwiki.rbg.tum.de and the Knowledge Database kb.in.tum.de which are continuously updated. Many answers for common questions can be found quickly in those articles.

On voluntary basis, and depending on our work amount, we try to answer other questions regarding private systems, to provide a good study and work environement for students and staff.

But we are not responsible for 

• viruses 
• hardware damage 
• data transfer
  on private systems.

Questions regarding central IT-Services like TUMOnline are the responsibility of the IT-Support.
