Assignments
Assignments will be posted here as they become available
Resources
Here are some resources you may find useful:
- A Virtualbox OVF image for Ubuntu 17.10.1
- The SCS openstack cluster. Note that you can only access this from the Carleton network. To access from elsewhere, VPN in to the university. (On Linux you can also use openconnect rather than the Cisco software provided by Carleton.)
If you cannot access openstack, try changing your SCS password.
