Getting Started

Class account

Access via SSH

  • Have you created ssh keys? If not, create your private and public keys:

    % ssh-keygen

  • The public keys of authorized persons are placed in the class accounts by a batch job each night. Only people with lecturer or supervisor membership are authorized to ssh into their class accounts. The command below shows your memberships:

    % acc

    If acc shows that you are not a member,

    • lecturers: Check that you are allocated to your course on the Teaching Allocations site. If not, email <teachadmin AT SPAMFREE cse DOT unsw DOT edu DOT au>

    • admins: Email the lecturer for your course or <teachadmin AT SPAMFREE cse DOT unsw DOT edu DOT au> to add you to your course, as supervisor.

  • Log into your course account:

    % ssh -Y cs9999@wagner

If you are correctly allocated to your course as indicated on the allocation files and if you have previously created your keys, you should be able to log into your class account. If not, you can email system support (ss@cse.unsw.edu.au).

Course websites

A typical url for a course website: http://www.cse.unsw.edu.au/~cs9999

In the class account, under the public_html directory, create/edit the index.html file and create a new term (e.g. 20T3) directory for your files.

    replacing YYsN with the current session e.g. 12s2 and COMP9999 with your course code

  • Andrew Taylor sends out an email in Week 0 of each session with instructions on how to select casual tutors.
    • View the list of tutors at this url:

      https://www.cse.unsw.edu.au/~teachadmin/casual_academics/YYsN/summary/COMP9999.html

    • Enter the tutors for your course in this file:

      /home/teachadmin/public_html/casual_academics/YYsN/selections/COMP9999

      replacing YYsN with the current session e.g. 12s2 and COMP9999 with your course code
