  1. ITIS 2110 Lab #2

  2. Things to do • Today’s Notes • NFS in the lab • Lecture: • Linux II • vi • Lab 2

  3. NFS in the lab • NFS allows the users home directory to be available no matter which workstation in the lab they log onto • The users home directory must always be available to keep Linux running • Contains critical configuration information • Do a ls –a to see all the configuration files for a user (starting with a .) • NFS allows the users home directory on a network drive! • This is a problem when the workstation’s NICs are disconnected for experiments • Special setup for the 302 lab: • When logging on a template of the user’s home directory is copied to the local workstation • This includes the Desktop (and others) • User’s home directories are deleted every midnight on the workstations! • Special case: network_storage directory is kept on the file server • Data there should follow you to each workstation you log on • Should not be deleted by the system

  4. Lab 2 • Objective • More Linux Basics • Introduce to vi

  5. Important Note • Whenever possible text data must be captured as text, not with a screenshot • e.g. to document the contents of a directory: • ls –l > targetfile.txt • > creates or replaces data in targetfile.txt • targetfile.txt will have the listing normally sent to the screen • or • ls –l >> targetfile.txt • >> appends data to targetfile.txt • targetfile will have the listing added to the previous contents of the file

  6. Lab 2 • Lecture: • Linux overview and Commands • Linux Basics II • Note: The use of the command line is nicely summarized in LA Ch 5 • Editing • vi • Lab • 2110Lab2Linux.docx
