Penpot Access

How to Join the SD2C Penpot Design Boards

Follow these simple steps to accept an invitation and join the SD2C Penpot Design Boards

What You Need

• An invitation email (a university of business related email address is preferred)
• A computer or phone with internet
  
• A browser other than your default one

Default (or your preferred used) browsers will give you a caching error on sign-in, however if you open a cognito or private browser, you can sign in successfully. We are currently testing and working on the fix for this.

Step 1: Connect to the University of Utah VPN

1. Using the device you’d like to connect to the VPN, visit https://vpn.utah.edu to install GlobalProtect (if you’re using a university-managed device, it may be necessary to contact your local IT desktop support staff).
2. Select the GlobalProtect agent for your computer (Windows 32bit, Windows 64bit, or Mac 32/64).
3. Once the msi/pkg file has been downloaded, launch the file to install.
4. If prompted, enter vpn.utah.edu as your portal address.
5. Rebooting your computer after installation is recommended.
6. Duo 2FA users will receive an authentication prompt on their Duo-registered mobile device.
   • The username is your uNID.
   • The password is your university password
     
7. If connection is not successful, check the https://uofu.status.io/ for VPN status
