First-time participants:

Our conferencing system requires you to create your own login (user) name and password. Upon entering you will be prompted for them, then you will be greeted with a short new user information form. On your return trips to our conferencing system you will be able to use your account here again.

If you are denied access, chances are someone is already using the login name you have chosen, in which case select a different login name and try again. You will want to change the name on the second line of the new user form, as this is your name displayed with any postings you make.
