Date: Tue, 12 Jun 2001 16:19:34 -0500 (CDT) From: Mark Jacobson To: 810-088-05@uni.edu, 810-030-01@uni.edu Subject: Hands-on class in WRT 112 lab Hi PERL/CGI 088 and Visual Basic 030 students, We will have our first hands-on class in the Wright 112 computer lab tommorrow (Wednesday) instead of in the Wright 105 classroom. The Wright 112 lab has 28 DELL computers. Its down the hallway from 105. PERL students, there are only 17 of you. Please do NOT sit in the last two rows of the classroom. For sure, do NOT sit in the last row. ------------------------------------ If you have not had a chaos.cns.uni.edu and College of Natural Science account for Windows and Linux before, or if you forgot your user id and/or password, someone will help you look it up at the beginning of class. Here is how you do that, if you want to try it as soon as you get there. 1. telnet to chaos.cns.uni.edu from anywhere. one way you can do this from your web browser is by using the URL http://www.uni.edu/students/email.htm and choosing the Telnet CHAOS hypertext link.... (Note: if you are in our Wright 112 or Wright 339 lab, login to Windows NT with the user id: internet and password: internet and then form the Start menu button, Programs, choose Internet, then telnet to chaos command...) 2. Login to chaos as user id: newuser and password: newuser 3. Type in the following for each prompt: first name last name UNI ID # Social Security Number For your SSN, type in the 9 digit SSN with no spaces or hyphens. Be sure to use your official UNI first name. Michael, not Mike. No nicknames. 4. Write down your user id and password. Be sure to carefully write down the password for upper-case versus lower-case. 1 is not the same as l ONE L Example password: XilBTru1M has 4 upper case letters X B T and M 1 lower case L and one digit, 1. 5. Do Start menu, Shutdown, Close All Programs and Login as a Different User 6. Login to your own College of Natural Science account using the user id and password that you looked up above in step #4. Keep this user id and password in your billfold or your purse. Don't put it in a book or something you might leave at home or not have with you two weeks from now! Wait to change your password until I have explained how to do that, because your password is the SAME one for two different accounts: Once for Windows and once for Linux and chaos.cns.uni.edu Unix system. If you do change your password, or changed it last fall or spring and have forgotten it, the password you look up above might still be the same one for your chaos.cns.uni.edu sessions. The system administrator will have to reset your Windows password, however, if you changed that and forgot it. The telnet chaos.cns.uni.edu login: newuser 1st name: password: newuser last name: UNI ID: SSN: only tells you what the password was when your account was created by the system this week or back in August of 2000 or in January of 2001 when you started a CNS (math, chemistry, cs, physics, geography, industrial tech, science, or biology) course. See you in Wright 112 lab on Wednesday for day #3 of Visual Basic or of PERL/CGI Web Programming. Mark
