Here are some helpful tips for new members to the SPL. * The lab web page is at [[http://www.cs.ubc.ca/labs/spl][http://www.cs.ubc.ca/labs/spl/]] * Add yourself to the SPL mailing list: mail [[mailto:majordomo@cs.ubc.ca majordomo@cs.ubc.ca]] placing "subscribe soft-practices" in the body of the message) * Update your [[http://www.cs.ubc.ca/unix-auth/userinfo_update][userinfo]] information. Department people will use this to find out your office, etc. You can query this information with the userinfo command from any Unix box or using the userinfo web search. * Get yourself on the Unix spl group by asking one of the faculty to send a request to [[mailto:help@cs.ubc.ca help@cs.ubc.ca]]. * Read the [[http://www.cs.ubc.ca/local/computing/][local computing FAQ]] for information on setting up your e-mail, and about our [[http://www.cs.ubc.ca/local/computing/faq/index.shtml#unix_account][Unix]] and [[http://www.cs.ubc.ca/local/computing/faq/index.shtml#windows_account][Windows]] setups. * Your home directory is accessed through =Z:\= under Windows. * Our SPL directory is in =/cs/labs/spl= (Unix) or =R:\spl= (Windows) * The different internal groups have their own drives for storing research work, usually found under the SPL directory. Gail's group (for historical reasons) is found at =/isd/se2/= (Unix) or =R:\isd\se2=. * Local copies of programs can be found from the [[http://www.cs.ubc.ca/labs/spl/internal/downloads/][SPL downloads page]]; add your own to =/cs/spl/labs/Downloads= (Unix) or =R:\spl\shared\Downloads= (Windows); the web-page is rebuilt nightly. * Use the self-service forms at [[http://www.wireless.ubc.ca][Campus Wide Login]] for your cwl id. * If possible, make your cwl id the same as your cs id. * Then inform [[mailto:help@cs.ubc.ca help@cs]] of your cwl id. * Doing this will allow you to connect via the Contivity VPN client on Windows, logging in as <i>your cwl id<b>.cs</b></i> * you'll get an IP address inside the CS firewall, * you'll be able to mount your home directory from <b>\\cs-smb.cs.ubc.ca\</b><i>your cs id</i>, * and connect to printers at <b>\\winserver.cs.ubc.ca\</b><i>queue name</i> (eg. =iccs-306=).
