Overview
Google's Single Sign-On (SSO) lets you sign up with a new DreamHost account or log in to your DreamHost panel using your Google account. SSO simplifies the login process by letting you use your Google account instead of remembering another user/password combination.
Some browsers are enabled with default pop-up settings that disable pop-ups from displaying. If so, you must manually allow your browser to display pop-ups. The following links show how to do this with popular browsers.
