Final Project WeeSan Lee <weesan@cs.ucr.edu> http://www.cs.ucr.edu/~weesan/cs183/
Final Project - Proposal • Individual or group of 2 • Related to Unix System Administration • Proposal • 1 page (only) in PDF • Problem description • Proposed solution • Expected deliverables • Latex & bibtex • http://www.cs.ucr.edu/~weesan/cs183/download/latex_ex-0.1.tar.gz • Due in the beginning of 5th week (4/28 @ 11:55pm)
Final Project - Report & Presentation • Report • 4 pages (at least) in PDF • Introduction • Related work • Technical details • Result • Conclusion • References • Latex & bibtex • http://www.cs.ucr.edu/~weesan/cs183/download/latex_ex-0.1.tar.gz • Due in last class (6/6 @ 11:55pm) • 8-10 mins in-class presentation • About 6-8 slides
Final Project - Examples • Automation • Kick-start install • Package management/update • Scripting • Web front-end of user account management • Network • Web cache performance enhancement using multiple network interfaces • Security • How to setup a secure network? • Misc • Asterisk PBX (http://www.asterisk.org/) • Linux PVR (http://www.mythtv.org/)
Final Project - More Examples • System Automation • If any server is down, can you setup an identical server within a few minutes? • Scripting • Web front-end for email filter or SPAM filter setup • Improved lockdown script • System Health Monitor System • Uses crontab or an agent to collect statistics of your system, such as uptime, load, # of processes, tx/rx bytes .. • Implement a web frond-end to display those info
Final Project - More Examples • Visualization • Instead of displaying number, display graph instead • Graph the topology of a given network • Fault Tolerant System • Hot-standby and fail-over if primary system fails • Load balance • NX server and preserve login session • Something better than round-robin DNS • Backup • Incremental backup system • Snapshot-like implementation
Final Project - More Examples • System Security • Parse the log files for potential break-ins, attacks, etc. • Tripwire re-implementation • Write a tool that determines if any NIC of a group of machines are in promiscuous mode • Authentication Integration between Linux and Windows • LDAP • Print Server • Write a script to filter out non-PS files before spooling the files • File system Implementation • FUSE (http://fuse.sourceforge.net/)
Final Project - More Examples • Cluster Management • Torque (resource manager) & Maui (cluster scheduler) • http://www.clusterresources.com/ • TCP • TCP speed-up, • Read http://www.cs.ucsd.edu/~savage/papers/CCR99.pdf • Any other topics related to Unix System Administration! • http://sourceforge.net/search/?words=system+administration
A Minimal Project • Find a software related to system admin. • Install and play with it • Identify a couple of it’s weaknesses • Improve the weaknesses by: • Hack the code • Add new scripts
