3. Printers – Checking Your Quota • Users get a $15 quota at the beginning of each term. To check your quota, log into https://intranet.cecs.pdx.edu/purr.

4. Printing – Printer Names • All printers are named systematically to match the following pattern: • For a list of printers, see http://www.cat.pdx.edu/docs/misc/printer_list.php.

5. Printing – Checking the Queue • You don't have to walk across the room to check the printer. • Click the printer icon that appears in the system tray. This isn’t very reliable. • Run lpq from a UNIX or Linux host. For example, to check the queue of printer fab5517clr1, run this command: lpq -P fab5517clr1

6. Printing – More information • For more details see http://www.cat.pdx.edu/students/printing.php.

7. E-mail – Mail Clients on Windows • Pegasus • Web mail • Read mail on a UNIX or Linux machines using pine, mutt, mh, elm, etc.

8. E-mail – Forwarding Mail • Forward mail by creating a .forward file in your UNIX home directory. For detailed information, see http://www.cat.pdx.edu/unix/unixForwardMail.php • Forward mail using webmail's UI.

9. Samba • Create a symbolic link to you home directory in Linux and UNIX cd ~ && ln -s . smb_files

10. Samba – Accessing UNIX and Linux • UNIX home directory \\unix\cs\ • Linux home directory \\unix\linux\

11. Samba – Mapping the Samba Share • From the command line net use U: \\unix\unix /user:cecs\user net use L: \\unix\linux /user:cecs\user • From the GUI

12. VPN – Connecting • Change temporary password by logging into a Windows box on campus • Use domain name and user name (e.g., cecs\tspencer) • Make sure you have a directory called smb_files in your home directory • Detailed instructions can be found at http://www.cat.pdx.edu/windows/vpn.php

13. VPN – Uses • Access your UNIX and Linux home directory from any Windows computer using samba. • Print to CECS printers from your Windows or Mac laptop. • Access your files and documents in the Windows home directory \\khensu\homedirs\StudentCS\spencer

19. Writing Code in Windows Once samba is set up, you can access your files in you UNIX or Linux home directly. With this in place, you can use a text editor or IDE to create, edit, and debug code. With PuTTY connected to a UNIX or Linux, you have an excellent working environment.

20. Writing Code in Windows – Text Editors • Visual Studio .NET 2003 • TextPad • vim • gvim (P:\Programs\vim63\gvim.exe)
