 linux06 - linux14 have been removed from linuxrow.  The linux.cs.mtsu.edu round robbin now includes linux01 - linux05 as well as ranger1 - ranger2.  The linux01 - linux05 machines are on the floor of the KOM 351 lab.

floor linuxrow default desktop GNOME

The floor Linuxrow machines in KOM 351 are set to log in to GNOME as their default desktop environment.  This is changed from KDE.

Reset UNIX account tool created

A new tool has been created to reset your unix account.  It does the following:
  1. Kills all processess owned by you on all linuxrow systems
  2. Kills all NX sessions and destroys all saved NX sessions on linuxrow NX servers
  3. Resets all GNOME and KDE settings to system defaults

To access,log in to domain site (http://www.cs.mtsu.edu) and go to 'My account'.  Click on 'UNIX Account Repair' tab and confirm when prompted.

Mysql and web server migration

I've moved the web server and mysql database server off of torvalds... finally. It was getting a little old. We now run both on a virtual machine in a Xen cluster. This will drastically improve up time and overall reliability. A few points to note:
1) Mysql is now version 5.0.38

2) The mysql URL is still mysql.cs.mtsu.edu . However, if you were using torvalds.cs.mtsu.edu before, it will no longer work.
