Accessing the System

You need a web browser, enter https://is.jamu.cz/ and click to “Login”. If you want to make sure the connection is secure, check MU Information System certificate. Click the lock icon in your browser's address bar next to the URL (the specific location may vary by browser), which displays detailed information about the security of the page. You log in to the system with entering your user name (use your personal identification number – učo) and password. The faculty administrator of access rights will tell you the učo and password, see

Due to the security of the primary password, you will be redirected to the address islogin.cz (a detailed description of security can be found in the text of the authenticated users Login at islogin.cz).

The personal identification number remains with you, for example, even if you finish your studies and return to school after a few years.

To log out of the System, click on the log-out icon situated in the upper right-hand corner. Please make sure that you always perform this operation on the computers you share with other people.

After clicking on the logout icon, you have the option to select „log out from other computers too“ by checking it.

Without a check mark, you will only log out on the device you are currently clicking on. When checked, you will be immediately logged out of all devices on which you are currently logged in. If you access the system via a small mobile device, the „log out from other computers too“ option is not displayed and the system immediately logs off the user only on the current device. To log out from other computers as well, select:

Login in IS MU, if you do not log out, is always valid for 4 days after the last operation (after the last click). You use the „log out from other computers too“ option when you realize that you forgot to log out on a device to which you no longer have access.

The primary password is used exclusively for logging into the Information System JAMU (located at https://is.jamu.cz/auth/). The primary password should not be used for logging into other systems. This also applies to other school sites and e-mail accounts, for which you should use your secondary password.

The primary password can be changed on the basis of knowledge of this password directly in the IS JAMU:

Please make sure that you always take special care of your primary password and do your best to prevent it from any misuse. In this respect, it is important that you not share it with anyone else or send it anywhere in an unencrypted format (e.g. via e-mail).

IS administrators never require you to send them your password by e-mail. If you ever receive such a request or an e-mail asking you to enter your password via a page other than the one belonging to IS or Inet, you should never do so, since you have probably become subject to phishing.

You should never allow your browser to save your password either. If you do so, anyone working with the computer when you are not around will be able to log into IS under your profile.

The MU secondary password is usually required for other services using IS JAMU authentication means such as school e-mail accounts working with IMAP and POP3 protocols, the services offered at Comenius Computer Study, WIFI Eduroam authentication, etc. You can change/specify your secondary password using your primary one directly in IS MU on the page you use for changing your primary password: Please make sure that your secondary password is different from the primary one, as the former is sometimes transferred over networks in an unencrypted form, which makes it more vulnerable.

Please get in touch with your access rights administrator, who will provide you with a new password. For the list of access rights administrators assigned to individual faculties, please go to:

The password cannot be sent via e-mail because your access rights administrator must verify your identity first. Besides, this way of distributing passwords is insecure and might result in someone misusing your account.

Please make sure that you are using the right keyboard layout. To switch between layouts (e.g. English and Czech), you might want to use the icon with a language code on it (e.g. EN and CS) situated in the bottom right-hand corner of your screen. Another problem might be using the digit 1 instead of the letter l or the digit 0 instead of the letter O. Provided you are entering your user name and password into the System correctly and you still experience difficulties logging in, please proceed the way described in the previous question.

You can look up the password saved in your browser the following way:

• Microsoft Edge – see help Edit your passwords in Microsoft Edge.
• Mozilla Firefox – Go to Tools › Options › Security › Saved Passwords
• Google Chrome – Go to the Chrome menu (clicking on the Chrome menu icon situated on the browser toolbar in the top right-hand corner) › Settings › Show advanced settings › Passwords and forms › Manage saved passwords.

Click on the log-out icon situated in the upper right-hand corner, log out of the System and close all the browser windows. If the problem persists, it means that someone else has saved his/her password in the browser (see What is the way of looking up the password saved in my browser?). We strongly recommend you not to save your passwords in browsers.

Always read carefully the contents of the error message.

If the error occurs for the first time, repeat after a few minutes to see if the problem persists.

If the problem persists, follow these steps:

1. Find out if you have Internet access. Try familiar servers such as https://google.com/, https://seznam.cz/. If they don't work, check your internet connection.
2. Find out if the unauthenticated IS JAMU title page https://is.jamu.cz. is displayed. If it does not appear, contact jamuis@fi.muni.cz. Fill in the following information in the e-mail:
   • What exactly error message does your browser display, or what information does the browser load the page, but the loading does not end within a few minutes.
   • From which IPv4 address do you access the MU IS (you can find out, for example, at https://whatismyip.com).
   • Which of the following pages works for you and which don't:
     • https://theses.cz
     • https://www.fi.muni.cz
     • https://www.muni.cz
     • https://www.cesnet.cz
   • How long and possibly how often do you observe the problem with connecting to the IS JAMU from this place.
3. Find out if you see an authenticated and secure page https://is.jamu.cz/auth/, resp. if the system prompts you to log in to the IS JAMU (page https://islogin.cz/). You log in by entering your account and password. Do not use bookmarks in your browser in this step, type the address https://is.jamu.cz/auth/ directly into the browser's address bar. If it doesn't appear, try clearing your browser's password and trying to clear your browser's cache. Contact your computer administrator to resolve these issues.

Provided you want to make sure that your connection to the server is secure, please check out the Information System security certificate. You can do so by clicking on the padlock icon situated in the address bar of your browser (usually next to the URL address, but its position may vary depending on the browser you use). This will display details related to your connection.

You have not enabled cookies in your browser. To do so, please follow the instructions given in the answer to the question What shall I do to enable cookies in my browser?.

To be able to log into the System, your browser must have cookies, which allow the System to identify its users, enabled. Although this option is active in most browsers by default, you may check its settings the following way:

• Microsoft Edge

  Open Microsoft Edge, select Menu (3 dots icon on top right corner of the browser) > Settings > Site permissions > Cookies and site data. Turn on "Allow sites to save and read cookie data (recommended)" to unblock cookies.

• Mozilla Firefox

  Open Firefox browser and in menu choose Preferences. In preferences search for Privacy tab. Search for a PRIVACY section and then look for History section. In a Firefox will: change remember history to Use custom settings. Find a checkbox Accept cookies from sites and choose it. Restart Firefox.

• Google Chrome

  Open the advanced settings and select Privacy and security. Select Advanced. Select Privacy and security. Select Site Settings. Select Cookies and site data. Select the Allow all cookies option. Under General settings, select Allow all cookies.

Provided your browser has been set to reopen the windows and tabs that were open before you last closed it, you will always need to log out once you are done working with the System. Closing the browser might not help in this respect. However, you may try to configure the option of reopening windows and tabs the way that makes the browser forget the logging credentials (this might only be possible in some browsers, though). Provided you use Google Chrome, please proceed as follows: Click on the wrench icon situated in the upper right-hand corner and go to Settings › Show advanced settings › Privacy › Content settings and select "Keep local data only until I quit my browser".

You remain logged in for the time you have specified in the System before. The default period is 4 days. The time you have specified in the System represents a minimal inactivity period during which the System keeps you logged in. However, the maximum period can be longer than the specified one by up to 1/4. In practice this means that if you decide on, say, 1 hour, you can still be logged in even after 65 minutes of being inactive.

In the situation where your access to the System is to be blocked, you are usually notified of the fact by an e-mail giving you the name of the person imposing the ban and informing you about the reasons for the ban as well as for how long it will be effective.

The user's access to the IS JAMU can be blocked:

for an unspecified period of time

Provided the user is, for instance, in debt to the University and he/she has not settled the debt by the required date, his/her access to the System can be blocked for an unspecified period of time.

temporarily

The user's access to the System can be blocked temporarily in the event of password misuse.

Authorized persons at their faculty can submit a long-term refusal of access. System administrators can enter short-term blocking of access to the IS JAMU. Before the access block is applied, the IS JAMU user will be informed on each visited page in the system by a notification of the impending system block. After the access block is applied, the system stops providing all services to the user.
