Computing Resources for CS61C
-----------------------------
  CS61C are issued UNIX accounts and can login to any Instructional UNIX 
  computer lab or server.  They typically use the SUN Sparc servers via
  the xterminals in the second floor Soda labs (for names and locations 
  of computers please see http://inst.eecs.berkeley.edu/clients).

  CS61C typically uses this software on UNIX:  C, MARS

  For the course WEB site, please see either

Playstation 2 
-------------
  Update: unfortunately, the PS2 broke in 2009.  This is for reference.

  We have an old PS2 (with a real MIPS chip) running Linux for CS61C.
  Because it runs an old and insecure version of Linux, the PS2 is not 
  on the Internet.  It is on the non-routable SunRay VLAN for 271 Soda.  
  We copy the current passwords to it each semester and create a local 
  home directory for each account.  
  
  It's accessible as "192.168.128.181" (no hostname) only from nova.cs 
  (and the SunRays in 271 Cory), with commands such as

    ssh -l cs61cl-aa 192.168.128.181
    scp somefile cs61cl@192.168.128.181:somefile

  CS61C students will be notified when the accounts have been set up.
  Then the can login to it and run their MIPS binaries.

  There is additional documentation for the students about the PS2 in
  http://inst.eecs.berkeley.edu/cgi-bin/clients.cgi?choice=271soda.
