AFS NETWORK ACCOUNT

The IBM systems are running AFS, which provides user authentication and file storage. Therefore, you MUST have an AFS account (which is also called a Network Server account). When logging in, use the Enter key to advance to the next field, not the Tab key.

See Client Services for written documentation. Also, there is a lot of documentation on-line at the menu Toolchest/Help/Man Pages.

PRINTING

A Hewlett-Packard Laserjet 4000 with 8MB RAM and Postscript is available for printing. The printer is to be used to print original copies ONLY. Printing large documents and multiple copies of a document is against site policies, please use a photocopier.

To print onto the Laserjet from here, use the command lp -c filename.

You may also use the op command, with the destination and queue name mu489, i.e. op -d print -q wm412 filename.

MISCELLANEOUS INFORMATION

Do not power off the CPU, there may be jobs running in the background.  The monitors are energy compliant and will automatically power down when there is no activity.  To restore power to the monitor, move the mouse or hit any key on the keyboard.

Remember to logout  when you have completed your work so others do not have access to your files (Toolchest/Desktop/Logout).

PROBLEMS

The operational contact person from the EES Department is Margie Barry, who can be reached at x85411. If she is not available, contact Library and Technology Services at x8HELP (x84357).
