There will be a 48 hour notification on updates during the non-frozen period. No updates (including security updates) will occur during the frozen period. The updates will be tested on 'tom' first, and 'tom' will generate an email to imager-tech when it is upgraded. * Look at the file /var/log/yum.log to see a list of recent updates to Linux machines. ---++++ Imager Filespace ---++++++ modified: Mar 28 2007 * The imager filespace is located at /ubc/cs/research/imager . ---++++ What changed with NetApps ---++++++ modified: Jun 20 2007 * NetApps documention link: [[http://www.cs.ubc.ca/local/computing/accounts/backups.shtml][http://www.cs.ubc.ca/local/computing/accounts/backups.shtml]] * Recommendations for setting permissions: For most files = -rw------- (default, allows only you to read and write them.) C/C++ programs and other programs = -rwx------ (also default, allows only you to read, execute and write them.) See the man page on umask for information on how default permissions are set.
