Instructions for using the 019 lab for CSC123 0. The 11 machines along the wall in Adams 019 is reserved for use by advanced CS students. I will rely on your maturity to not abuse the machines in this lab. Some of you will be running with admin previleges. The machines are behind a masquerading firewall at 147.4.183.13 ("starbase"). When you are physically inside 019, you'll be behind this firewall. ********************************************************************** Please be aware that if any unauthorized activity, especially illegal downloads, are ever detected, you will immediately fail the course and possibly face further sanctions. ********************************************************************** 1. The machine 10.1.0.3 (thincrust) should not be used without permission from prof. Liang. This is a linux server: if it goes down it can affect a lot of people. 2. The other machines along the wall may be booted into windows - some have windows xp, others have windows 2000. All these machines have MIT scheme installed. They also have a suite of programs under the heading "cygwin", which allows you to run a Unix style shell (bash), X windows, and Gnu software including emacs. In other words it gives you an Unix-like environment while using Windows binaries. Click on the Cygwin icon. When you get a prompt, type "startxwin.sh". This will bring up a xterm window from which you can launch graphical applications such as emacs. You can also use notepad or some other editor to write your programs, but emacs is recommended since it'll match your parentheses. You can install cygwin on your own machine from cygwin.com 3. You can save your programs on a floppy disk (I'll give you one if you didn't bring one). Just type cd a: or cd /cygdrive/a to get to the floppy. You can also save the file on the local drive, but it's recommended that you send it via network elsewhere (sftp to husun3). 4. There are also 9-10 other machines in the room. They triple boot into windows and two versions of Linux, but these machines are not under my direct control. You can use them but you'll have to figure out what to do yourself.
