--------------------------------------------- Directions for writing in-Lab Unix Final Exam (Scripting Section) --------------------------------------------- -IAN! idallen@ncf.ca Directions similar to these will accompany your in-Lab Unix Final Exam. The in-Lab part of your Unix Final Exam is one hour long. It starts when everyone is logged into the IDAllen Linux Machine (below). The test is open-notes and open-book; however, you may only access the IDAllen Linux Machine during the test. Access to other machines, including to ACADUNIX, is *not* permitted during the in-Lab test. In the Lab, you will need to be running Floppix with networking to do this test. You must have network access enabled to reach the IDAllen Linux machine from the T111 Lab. The IDAllen Linux machine name and address is probably as follows (but may differ on the day of the test - see your instructor): Name: idallen-linux.ottawa.ad.algonquincollege.com IP address: 10.50.5.163 The above name and address will only work from inside the T111 Lab. To access the IDAllen Linux machine for practice from home or outside the lab, you must also use the ssh protocol (the PuTTY program on Windows), to host name "idallen.ca" and special port 2225 (not default port 22): via Windows PuTTY: Host Name: idallen.ca Protocol: SSH Port: 2225 (not 22 - set Port *after* you set the Protocol) via Unix/Linux SSH: $ ssh -l abcd0123 -p 2225 idallen.ca Your accounts on the IDAllen Linux Machine will be temporarily emptied of almost all files before the test begins. A copy of your Exercise #5 script file will be put in your home directory. During each of the Lab tests, only students present in the Lab will have access to the machine. Other students will be locked out until after the Lab period is over. When you start the test, you must create a sub-directory named unixfinal under your home directory on the IDAllen Linux Machine (not on Floppix! not on ACADUNIX!). The unixfinal directory on the IDAllen Linux machine is where you must put your lab scripts and your script output if you want the instructor to mark them for the Final Exam. Only scripts and output found under directory unixfinal on the IDAllen Linux Machine (not Floppix!) will be marked. Only correctly-spelled script and file names will be marked. Your scripts must start with a valid Script Header, as given in the script_checklist.txt checklist. Scripts without a valid header will be penalized. Scripts containing *useful* block comments will earn bonus marks, to a maximum of +10% on the final mark. Copies of all the term Unix notes files will remain available on the IDAllen Linux machine under this directory: ~idallen/course/dat2330/03w/notes/ You may refer to these files as needed.
