Register DIDE windows credentials.

Usage

windows_authenticate()

Value

Nothing, this function is called for its side effect of setting or updating your credentials within the keyring.

Details

In order to be able to communicate with the Windows DIDE HPC system, we need to be able to communicate with the HPC portal (https::mrcdata.dide.ic.ac.uk/hpc), and for this we need your DIDE password and username. This is typically, but not always, the same as your Imperial credentials. We store this information securely using the keyring package, so when unlocking your credentials you will be prompted for your computer password, which will be your DIDE password if you use a windows machine connected to the DIDE domain, but will likely differ from either your DIDE or Imperial password if you are outside the DIDE domain, or if you don't use Windows.

Examples
