login
<jargon> (Or "log in", "log on", "logon") To start a session with a system, usually by giving a user name and password as a means of user authentication. The term is also used to mean the ability to access a service (also called an account), e.g. "Have you been given a login yet?"
"Log in/on" is occasionally misused to refer to starting a session where no authorisation is involved, or to access where there is no session involved. E.g. "Log on to our Web site!"
"login" is also the Unix program which reads and verifies a user's user name and password and starts an interactive session.

Unlike the words "brush", "comb", and "e-mail", this term should not be used as both a noun and a verb. It should only be used as a noun, (You don't login to a server, you log in to it) and it refers to a username, or a code that identifies you to a certain server. It is often used in conjuction with a password to verify who is accessing the server. For example, when trying to access some forbidden top secret documents, you'll often encounter a screen that says, "Please enter your login and password." Then you have to sit there for hours trying to guess the stupid password...
