In Today’s Talk Administering your machine Communicating with others Kerberos and AFS Useful tips and links
5
The RPP Be nice! Refill the printers Don't leave the printers jammed (x8-2607) Don't print big jobs during peak hours Ask facilities before you do strange things
broadcast packets move hardware commercial anything
looking through other people's files: get explicit permission first
look for permissions in their .plan ask them directly
6
Do Today! .plan file door label home page Andrew
finger [email protected] login = first 8 digits of SS#
Email forwarding [email protected] name [email protected] name
7
More to do today! Create username.root
telnet jeeveskerberos createusername.root
Mail facilities and ask for root on your machine
Local password: “passwd –l” Ask for a copy# from the main office
(WeH4212)

How to get help Office mates Zephyr [email protected] Help desk (x8-4231) “how do I…?” Operator (x8-2607) “machines are
down…” Facilities advisory committee (

Where does the money go? Costs money:
new kerberos Ids printing network ports software backups dialups (1-800)
Free: accounts on machines WaveLan
10
Kerberos Log in, get a “ticket”
klist, kinit Tickets are good for 25 hours Used for:
Authentication (log into other machines without passwords)
Encryption (make sure nobody can snoop your connections)
Renew for 30 days: krenew (unix only) Renew forever: kkerberos (unix only) network/clock failurekerberos failurelogin
failure

afs
/afs/cs/user/colohan/…
12
Using afs Access control:
fs help fs listacl /afs/cs/user/colohan fs setacl /afs/cs/user/colohan colohan rlidwka mkdir ~/private fs setacl ~/private –clear colohan rlidwka Ignore unix permissions! Careful with mail directory permissions!
Turn tickets into tokens with aklog Quotas:
fs quota /afs/cs/user/colohan telnet jeeves
Backups in ~/OldFiles
13
NOT Using afs Why not?
Writes go to server on close Can be slow (especially for builds)
Security Bits sent on network in the clear
Server or network down == no work for you
Use local disk (/usr0) May want to move home dir to /usr0
or create a local account on your machine
14
Windows Run Windows update NOW Always log into SCS domain! Email
Use pop3 to your maildrop (ux#.cs.cmu.edu)
imap/Exchange in beta Do not run a client on the ux# servers!
Printing Printers off of \\monolith
15
Windows cont. File sharing
AFS Can make a FAT partition if you want
Telnet/ssh putty (ssh) niftytelnet (kerberized telnet)

Linux Choose a window manager
edit ~/.xinitrc (WM=startkde) Depot
It “owns” /usr/local make your own collections become a misc maintainer
Getting local root if your machine dies vmware Local disk is /usr0 man cdrecord (or use a cdrecord gui)

Zephyr A reminder: ZINMT
Zephyr Is Not My Thesis Command line version:
zwgc (started by default) zwrite colohan –m “Lunch?”
Blatant plug: kzephyr!! Emacs zephyr mode For Windows: jzephyr (beta testers
wanted!) FZQ Zephyr archive (contains posting interface!)
20
Public Zephyr Common “instances”:
help.*, chat.*, newsbites, graffiti, ephemera, sddd, *.d, facilities.announce, facilities.discussion
Don’t sign messages Don’t take people too seriously Andrew/MIT zephyr use is different Filter instances you are not
interested in
21
Netnews (bboards) cmu.cs.scs: important announcements cmu.cs.*.announce: new software or
changes cmu.cs.general: general interest items cmu.misc.market: fun fun fun! On unix, use localhost as news server On Windows, use dnntpd.srv
22
ssh
ssh –X [email protected]
scp gs138.sp:~/foobar ./
Very useful from off campus! Putty and TeraTerm ssh works well
in Windows
23
Email filtering Create a .maildelivery file on your
maildrop machine (ux#) man maildelivery Use [email protected] man spamassassin-maildelivery
