1559102 The students in the HKN room would like to know if they can get their linux box (MINUS) to allow access to all ECE students; similar to how the Teaching Labs are set up?

1473459 I would like to see about getting Agilent???s GoldenGate installed for use in my class, ECE 712, as well as for use by my graduate students. Please let me know what additional information you require. Thanks.

Misc Things

We default to tcsh because some parts of afs applications ("add" stuff?) break with bash. There is a contingent of folks who would like to see us move to BASH

---- jacorley: well most of the add initializations are done in tcsh scriptlets, which are obviously not bourne shell compatible 
---- acorley: well most of the add initializations are done in tcsh scriptlets, which are obviously not bourne shell compatible 
---- gsgatlin: well, we have an athena type system here that was originally built around cshell. so each locker has an initilization script that gets run by "add." Most ITECS created lockers (me) have a bash initilization also. Other lockers may be missing that piece.
---- jacorley: poke around lockers and look for dotfiles (.environment for tcsh IIRC, and .environmnet.sh for bash)gsgatlin: I created this web page that helps to explain it. But ignore references to Solaris 10. We have end of lifed that. http://techies.ncsu.edu/wiki/Addable_AFS_Locker
---- slack: msbelang: My advice is become familar with the systems with tcsh.  Once you understand the workings you can help us with the bash push

"add blah" is expected to be run in the shell session each time before you can use the software--there is no persistence.

Things to ask Dan about

Printing instructions

- Work only if sudo access; Are we assuming normal users won't add printers?
- Should we mention what to do if cups is not running?

Mail.engr.ncsu.edu

- How do I access this?

Bassguitar.ece.ncsu.edu

- Why is this different?
- Where is flash coming in?
