Hi Dustin,

 I see you GENI slice being up and no obvious errors. Is this still an
issue ?

All the slice names you are using are invalid names as per the sites.
You have to have a mix of characters and numbers and should not start
with a number.

Unfortunately we are unable to help debug since you have already deleted
your resources.

How are these resources being created ? Are you using any command line
tools ? GENI Portal ? geni-lib ?

okay. It took me a while to figure out the issue. The issue is straight forward. Your professor's id is not created on your VMs because he/she does not have any ssh keys registered with the GENI Portal. The GENI Portal code does not request for user accounts to be created on VMs for all members of slice that do not have any ssh keys registered.

This issue should be resolved now. If you use the GENIDesktop, you professor's account may be created because the GENIDesktop adds an extra ssh key to each user of the slice. This access allows for the slice members to interact with the slice via the GENiDesktop. But this may not be the right solution to you  problem you mentioned in your previous emails.
