Student and Faculty Use Servers
The CS Department provides both Linux and Unix servers for use by CS students. To learn how to connect to these servers, please visit the SSH Access page.
Linux Servers
linux.cs.odu.edu may be used to connect to one of the following Linux servers.
- atria.cs.odu.edu - 128.82.4.182 - 4x Intel Xenon X7550 @ 2.00 GHz - 128GB RAM - x86_64 - Ubuntu 12.04 LTS
- sirius.cs.odu.edu - 128.82.4.182 - 4x Intel Xenon X7550 @ 2.00 GHz - 128GB RAM - x86_64 - Ubuntu 12.04 LTS
Unix Servers
solaris.cs.odu.edu can be used to connect to one of the following Solaris servers.
- procyon.cs.odu.edu - 128.82.4.19 - 32 cores @ 2.5ghz - 32GB RAM - SPARC machine
- capella.cs.odu.edu - 128.82.4.19 - 32 cores @ 2.5ghz - 32GB RAM - SPARC machine
- antares.cs.odu.edu - 128.82.4.98 - 16 cores @ 2.15ghz - 32GB RAM - SPARC machine
Home Directory
When you log in to your Unix account, you are placed in your "Unix home directory". This will be the main working directory every time you log in. You can create and keep sub-directories,files and other important data in this directory.
Your home directory is backed up so it is advised to keep your data here. What is more, your Unix home directory gets mapped as your Windows Z-Drive so that you can share data between operating systems. Your Z-Drive can also be mapped to Apple Mac machines. To learn how you can do this, visit the Z-Drive Mac page.
To understand more about your Unix home directory, please visit the Unix Home Directory Explained page.
Unix Permissions
Your security is important to us, and it should be very important to you. When you create files in your Unix home directory, you should be aware of the permissions you can set on these files. These permissions will determine whether or not your information can be viewed by other students in the department.
To understand how you can correctly set Unix permissions, please view the Unix Permissions page.
FTP Services
All files in your home directory can be access via FTP connection. To learn more, visit the FTP Services page.
