Using your class account

• SEASnet policies and guidelines for account and machine usage have precedence.
• You will be contacted via your class e-mail account in case of rescheduling, urgent corrections, homework hints, etc. Read your e-mail frequently, daily if possible.
• If you already receive e-mail at any other internet address, make a file ".forward" in your home directory (AKA your login directory, can be reached by `cd' or `cd ~'). This file contains only the address of the account where you choose to receive your mail.
  • Example: contents of .forward:

    joeslurp@oac.ucla.edu
    

    And that's it, any message sent to your class account is immediately forwarded to your preferred site.
• To browse the entire world (from sovereignty claims in Antarctica to traffic speeds throught the Sepulveda Pass to cheesy homepages for a whole bunch of people to the archives of the Soviet Union) you can access a whole-planet directory.
