Kiwi

kiwi is one of our servers. This document provides a full description of its services. If a service is moved to another server, please just move the corresponding description to its page.

Description

PC. Runs Windows 2003 Standard Edition

NFS Client

kiwi has an NFS client, as part of Microsoft Windows Services for Unix. Each user in their profile tab (in Computer Management) has Z: drive connected to \\lychee.md.smms.uq.edu.au\nfs4exports\home, from which they can access their home subdirectory. The user name mapping (i.e. anton@kiwi -> anton@lychee) is set in the User Name Mapping tab of Microsoft Windows Services for Unix, which requires passwd and groups files.

Terminal Server

We have 30 Terminal Server Per-Device CAL Licenses, purchased without cost using UQ's CAUDIT? agreement with Microsoft. This required phone activation. Licensing is automatic for new clients, e.g. workstations.

Software

ArgusLab

ArgusLab uses a single XML file for the settings of all users. This can cause corruption if a file is recently used by one user in their Z drive (e.g. Z:\a.pdb), and another user then tries to open ArgusLab and ArgusLab cannot read that file as it is starting. To solve this problem just edit the XML file and remove the <file/>tags in the <recentfiles> section.

<recentfiles><file name = "�"/><file name = "Z:\Tetrapep\ACE_ETH.pdb"/></recentfiles>
