Ssh between machines a CS
It is quite simple to get to a machine in the department remotely from another machine in the department. All machines in the labs, classroom and faculty offices should already have an ssh client installed on them and those machines which allow remote access are running an ssh daemon to accept incoming connections.````````````````````text/html2008-04-10T01:28:12+00:00Anonymous (anonymous@undisclosed.example.com)publications

Electronic Submission
You should make a cs377 directory under your home directory on your CS account, and protect it:
$ cd
$ mkdir cs377
$ chmod 700 cs377
Your programming assignments should each be saved in a subdirectory named cs377. This makes it easy to use the submit377 script for each individual assignment, as well as keeps your assignments organized.text/html2026-04-20T19:06:08+00:00Anonymous (anonymous@undisclosed.example.com)week11
