Using The Lab's "Intranet"

The Mozilla Firefox and Opera web browsers have been installed on machines in L-5.  To launch Firefox, click on the "globe clock" icon in the CDE control panel, or use the following commands:

Globe Clock icon
$ firefox

or

$ opera

In addition, Apache WWW server has been installed on the server machine, turing, with a stripped-down copy of your course web site.

The URL is:  http://turing/
or  http://192.168.90.5/

The Technology web server can also be accessed via the LAN, using IP address 192.168.90.17.

You can work on a lab by switching back-and-forth between dtterm (shell) windows, a web browser, dtpad and even xman (the manpages utility for X).

Often, lab files will be placed on the server.  They can be accessed with FTP using a shared course username and password.
