    Hi @yaiherve,

    What credentials are you using? In the introductory chapter we provide the login credentials to access resources. Please follow instructions accordingly.

    Hi @yaiherve,

    I attempted to access the URL in Chrome and Firefox respectively. Both successfully show the authentication request pop-up window, asking for the user and password information. If I canceled the pop-up window (instead of typing in the expected user and password followed by the "Sign in" button), I got to the 401 Authorization Required message.
    Does your browser prevent or block pop-up windows? If so, that would explain the 401.

    Regards,

    Have you just tried launching the link (clicking on it instead of typing)? It should automatically give you the login page:
    .
    The 401 error only shows up if you click on Cancel.
    You will also be able to download the course resources when doing lab 3.1, using the command line.
