Class Info:
CS522 F2006 Class Photo Album and Web Pages
CS522 F2004 Class Photo Album and Web Pages
Please create a personal
web page at http://cs.uccs.edu/~<login> with your personal photo, basic
vita, your interests in this class, and potential semester projects
that you may work on. This will allow classmates to find common interests
and know each other. See http://wetterhorn.uccs.edu/~cs301/graphics/scanning.htm
for scanning your personal photo. You can also use my personal web page
as a template. If you do not know how to setup your personal web page, drop
by my office. I will help you. This is part of your hw#1.
Make sure you use <login>.jpg
for your photo image file. Check on a browser and see if you can
access your web page. If you got "forbidden"
msg, it means that you need to open the access rights of your home directory
and public_html directory. Use "chmod 755 ../<login>" and "chmod
755 public_html" commands for changing the access rights.
CS522 Email List: We established a mail list cs522-l@uccs.edu that can be considered as group mailing address or a distribution list. You can email to the whole class using this email address. Use with precaution. When uccs.edu mail server receives an email for this address, it looks up a file with the list of your email addresses in the format of <uccslogin>@uccs.edu, and send each of you a copy. To forward the email to your own server, you need to
Text:We have setup 6 CS Unix Machines: blanca, crestone, sanluis, shavano, wetterhorn, redcloud for your homework exercises. You can remote login there to carry out those exercises. Your CS Unix account is different from that of UCCS Computing Service Account. The login for the CS Unix server is first initial, second initial, last name (up to a total of eight characters). For new accout, it is the same as your campus UFP account. The new password will be set to the last four digits of your SID repeated twice. Please login and use yppasswd to change it. Check your account by remote login with SSH clients and see if your password is valid. If not, email Jim Martin, jlmartin@eas.uccs.edu, our system admin to reset your password.
Once we get the offiical email list of the class, our system administrator will set up Microsoft E-Academy account for you to download MS VPC2004, VS2005, WinXP, Win2003 Server, and other related software package from Microsoft for academic and class exercises. You can set up VPC 2004 on a notebook or external hard drive. You can also install the OS' and related software package your self. Contact me if you are interested in download, install, and configuration virtual machines.
If you use Windows system at home, try to use free SSH Secure Shelll software package with SSH Secure Shell Client,/Secure File Transfer Client, from http://www.ssh.org/support/downloads/secureshellwks/non-commercial.html, to login to CS Unix machines. It is secure since the password is not transmitted as clear text and all data are encrytped.
You can also setup xterm over ssh http://www.linuks.mine.nu/windows/sshx.htmlFor the queueing and network modeling/simulation topics, we will use the industry strength tools such as IT guru and Modeler donated by Opnet to enhance the students' learning.
