Access to the faculty compute cluster is available on special request. This system focuses on usage of GPUs in machine learning, artificial intelligence and numerical methods, among others. Pure CPU computation modes are also available.

Acquiring access

In order to obtain access to the cluster a ticket has to be created in helpdesk. Request should contain following information:

type of computation to be performed
software to be used
rough estimate of storage requirements
estimated date of computation completion
additional logins of team members if applicable, for creation of a shared project workspace

URL shortener 28-04-2022 14:14

URL shortener

Engish vesion of https://link.wmi.amu.edu.pl/ is under construcition.

Students and employees have acces to URL shortener. It is available at https://link.wmi.amu.edu.pl/.

To log in use credentials from the LABS domain - same as you use in laboratories.

After succesfull log in URL shortener allows to create shortened URL to any web page with https://link.wmi.amu.edu.pl/ alias.

To create your own URL enter a name in box Nazwa linku (which will be visable only to you) and URL to the page which you want the link to lead to.

Jenkins 18-11-2019 08:36

Jenkins

Jenkins is a tool for automating build, testing and deployment of projects. To acquire access to it create a ticket in helpdesk containing:

login (sXXXXXX) of the project lead
project name containing only letters, numbers - and _
logins of project members

The system is available at https://jenkins.wmi.amu.edu.pl. Domain credentials are used (like in the laboratories).

By default a project folder is made available in which users can create objects, usually of pipeline type.

Git Configuration

It's possible to link Jenkins with our Git system. In order to achieve this both Jenkins and the repository has to be configured.

Jenkins configuration

open the semester folder (e.g. 2026L) and open your project, if a pipeline object doesn't exist you have to create one
Configure
Gogs Webhook
- Use Gogs secret
- Secret: very long string
Build Triggers
- Build when a change is published to Gogs
Pipeline
- Definition: Pipeline script from SCM
- SCM: Git
- Repository URL: adres SSH repozytorium (e.g. git@git.wmi.amu.edu.pl:s123456/project.git)
- Credentials: git (SSH read-only access for git.wmi.amu.edu.pl)
- Repository browser: gogs
- URL: HTTPS repository address (without the ending '.git') (e.g. https://git.wmi.amu.edu.pl/s123456/project)
- Lightweight checkout
- Save

Git repository configuration

In the Git repository configuration:

Settings -> Webhooks -> Add Webhook -> Gogs
- Target URL: https://jenkins.wmi.amu.edu.pl/gogs-webhook/?job=PIPELINE-NAME (e.g. https://jenkins.wmi.amu.edu.pl/gogs-webhook/?job=s123456-project)
- Secret: very long string from Jenkins configuration
- Add Webhook
Deploy Keys -> Add Deploy Key
- Title: jenkins
- Content: ssh-ed25519 AAAAC3NzaC1lZDI1NTE5AAAAIOuVvhUjr+UosOx3IEBUi0IfV8Erv2OL3Er5pUHbjxNo

Usage of SSH from the pipeline

It's possible to add SSH connection support from the Jenkins pipeline. A common usage would be copying of a built and tested application version, and performing actions on the remote server, for example restarting the WWW service.

The public SSH key used by Jenkins for external SSH connections:

ecdsa-sha2-nistp256 AAAAE2VjZHNhLXNoYTItbmlzdHAyNTYAAAAIbmlzdHAyNTYAAABBBKRso2eJ1wXHqD83Ii8Qem0kDWY5sCFVS6OczBpOPT+66nvOt5Z0VNajjZLkA5BXh0ZoZ+RqDQdi4JMndPvcEwY= jenkins-ssh-external

Requesting SSH for a project

To activate the SSH function create a ticket in helpdesk containing:

Jenkins project name
SSH host name
SSH user name (it has to trust the SSH key specified above)
absolute path to the directory used as the work directory over SSH

You will receive a SSH configuration name that will be required in the project Jenkinsfile in accordance to the codumentation.

An example `Jenkinsfile` implementation

Copying files over SSH

The section below will transfer build.tar.gz to the target SSH server:

stage('SSH-publish') {
    steps {
        sshPublisher(
            continueOnError: false, 
            failOnError: true,
            publishers: [
                sshPublisherDesc(
                configName: "CONFIGURATION_NAME_RECEIVED_FROM_HELPDESK",
                transfers: [sshTransfer(sourceFiles: 'build.tar.gz')],
                verbose: true
                )
            ]
        )
    }
}

Performing remote actions over SSH

The section below will delete build.tar.gz on the remote SSH server:

stage('SSH-exec') {
    steps {
        sshPublisher(
            continueOnError: false, 
            failOnError: true,
            publishers: [
                sshPublisherDesc(
                configName: "CONFIGURATION_NAME_RECEIVED_FROM_HELPDESK",
                transfers: [sshTransfer(execCommand: 'rm build.tar.gz')],
                verbose: true
                )
            ]
        )
    }
}

Git 12-06-2018 14:36

Git

All LABS domain users have access to faculty's git server operating under Gitea software. It is available at https://git.wmi.amu.edu.pl.

After loggin in with LABS domain credentials, user has access to public repositories and those to which he has appropiate privileges. Everyone can also create a new repository.

Repository creation

In a top right corner symbol "+" is located. After clicking on it choose "New repository".

On a next screen enter name of a repository you want to create. It's the only required field. However, Gogs gives us possibility of automatic repository initialization with appropiate .gitignore file and/or license.

After choosing a license or technologies used to generate .gitignore set field Initialize this repository with selected files and template

Ater clicking Create Repository repository should be created.

Organization

Organization in Gitea groups repositories and allows to create teams that can be assigned rights to repositories in the organization. In order to create an organization you should create ticket in helpdesk system containing:

short explanation why an organization is needed
organization name
information whether the organization is to be available
- publicly
- for every authenticated user
- only for users added to the organization

It is possible to add team containing faculty employees that will be synchronized with our LDAP server (LABS domain). To do this, give your team name ldap_faculty. Members will be added based on their membership in LDAP group no later than 5 minutes after the team is created.

Home directory 12-06-2018 14:36

Home directory

From laboratories

Home directory is mounted automatically during login. On Windows it is available as disk J:, while on Linux as ~ or /home/group/login where group may be students, faculty or wmiguests - depending on the account type.

From Faculty's network

From faculty's network one may connect to the share through CIFS protocol, ie. enter \\files.wmi.amu.edu.pl\path in Explorator Windows' search bar and log in with LABS domain credentials. In case of employees accounts path has form: faculty\login, students: students\login.

On Linux it is possible to mount share (requires superuser's privileges) or use tools like smbclient (does not require special privileges).

Outside of Faculty

The easiest method is using an SFTP client (e.g. WinSCP or FileZilla on Windows) and connecting to lts.wmi.amu.edu.pl.

Jira 12-06-2018 14:36

Jira

The faculty Jira server (https://jira.wmi.amu.edu.pl) has been decommissioned due to Atlassian ending support for the hosted server versions. Previously created projects were usable until February 2025. For new projects please read the remainder of this article.

Jira projects can be created on Jira service on Atlassian Corporation servers. This service is free for the teams up to 10 users.

It is possible to connect the faculty git repository to the project. To do this, you need to:

After logging in to the website https://git.wmi.amu.edu.pl generate an access token:
1. Click your avatar in the top-right corner, Select "Settings", a then "Applications".
2. Enter the token name, select "Read" under "repository" in the drop-down permissions list.
3. After clicking "Generate token", the value like db4aee634739dbdd5d9ed7445d43b7638f15ccjb will appear in the blue field. This value should be copied for use in the next step.

1. Click "Apps" -> "Smart Git Integration" -> "Add repository".
2. Enter the link to the repository.
3. Choose "Private".
4. In the "Access Token" field, paste the previously generated token.

LDAP 12-06-2018 14:36

LDAP

What is LDAP?

LDAP - meaning Lightweight Directory Access Protocol is a service provided by WMI enabling usage of directory services in the LABS domain.

How to connect with our LDAP server?

Informations required to connect:

server name: ldap://labs.wmi.amu.edu.pl
protocol type: LDAPS (TLS)
port: 636
CA certificate: ca_labs.wmi.amu.edu.pl.pem
accounts suffix: labs.wmi.amu.edu.pl

To connect from outside of the faculty's network VPN is necessary.

Example implementations in Java, Python and C# are available below. Every of those solutions requires other method of adding CA certificate to trusted list.

Java

CA certificate must be added to local trusted certificates store.

In case of a standard Windows installation one should from an administrative cmd modify certificate store JRE included in JDK:

C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.7.0_51\bin>keytool -import -file <path to ca_labs.wmi.amu.edu.pl.pem> -keystore ..\jre\lib\security\cacerts

Then enter password (default changeit) and proceed along with the instructions.

Example program: LDAPJava.zip

Change credentials in source code to your own.

Python

Example program: py_ldap.zip

Required is Python 2.7 and library python-ldap.

Adding a certificate to trusted happens directly in code through setting ldap.OPT_X_TLS_CACERTFILE.

C#;

CA certificate must be added to local trusted certificates store.

In case of a standard .NET Windows installation one should add a certificate from an administrative cmd:

certutil -addstore -enterprise -f -v root <ścieżka do ca_labs.wmi.amu.edu.pl.pem>

Example program: CLDAPExample.zip

Change credentials in source code to your own.

LTS 12-06-2018 14:36

LTS

Client

To connect necessary is installation of x2go client available at https://www.x2go.org. Program is available for Windows, macOS and GNU/Linux systems.

In X2Go client create a new session using following settings:

Host: x2go.wmi.amu.edu.pl
Login: LABS domain login
Session type: MATE
Display DPI: 96

Then one may log in using LABS domain password.

Disconnecting without logout

Advantage of using a terminal server is that session will be active for up to 8 hours since disconnect - therefore it is possible to leave running programs and disconnect with a server and then reconnect e.g. from other computer.

Linux 12-06-2018 14:36

Linux

This site describes how to configure wireless network in Linux with GNOME desktop environment. We used Ubuntu 9.10 as an example.

Download certificate file from Wireless network to your computer. You can download it on another computer and copy it on pendrive.

If you can't download the certificate file before configuring the connection you can skip this step. We recommend doing it later to increase security.

Click on the network icon near the clock and then click "wmi". If you are configuring connection outside of the Faculty and "wmi" is not available, you can click "Connect to Hidden Wireless Network..." instead.
Fill in the fields as described below:
- Network name: wmi (field available if you clicked "Connect to Hidden..." in step 1)
- Wireless security: WPA & WPA2 Enterprise
- Authentication: Protected EAP (PEAP)
- CA Certificate: (certificate file downloaded from Wireless network, if you did step 1)
- Username: (your login from LABS domain)
- Password: (your password from LABS domain)
Click "Connect". Connection will be established.
If you skipped step 1 do it now and add the certificate in connection properites (right click on the network icon, and then click "Edit Connections...", "Wireless", "wmi", "Edit" and "Wireless Security").

Linux 12-06-2018 14:36

Linux

Popular desktop distributions (e.g. Ubuntu) allow for graphical configuration of network interfaces using NetworkManager. Installation of additional packages allows it to manage OpenVPN connections as well.

On Ubuntu the required package is named network-manager-openvpn and can be installed using:

sudo apt-get install network-manager-openvpn

Depending on the distribution the network-manager-openvpn-gnome package might need to be installed as well (this instruction is based on a standard desktop distribution of Ubuntu 22.04):

sudo apt-get install network-manager-openvpn-gnome

You need OpenVPN version 2.4.6 or newer (AES-GCM cipher support)

This guide requires downloading of the VPN configuration file from the WMI account panel.

Open the network configuration window:

Add a new VPN connection:

by importing the previously downloaded configuration file:

Next, enter your credentials. For VPN connection to operate properly it is also necessary to set some advanced options:

VPN packets are not routed outside of faculty's network, therefore limit use of VPN connection only for internal resources in the IPv4 submenu of routes settings:

Similarly configure IPv6.

To launch the configured VPN connection use the network connection list:

Some versions of NetworkManager have problems with saving advanced TLS configuration. This issue will prevent the VPN connection from properly working after the first successful connection is made.

The solution is to reconfugre the TLS Authentication section in the Advanced Properties:

The key file is located in a hidden directory .cert/nm-openvpn located in the user's home directory. In order to show such folders you need to select the appropriate option from the context menu visible after right-clicking with your mouse on an empty space in the file view window.

Linux (without Network Manager) 12-06-2018 14:36

Linux without Network Manager

Configuration of wireless connection with faculty's network using program wpa_supplicant and DHCP client (not using Network Manager).

Method was tested on Fedora 8 distribution, but should work on every Linux (and even on different BSD flavors).

Before starting, make sure that newtwork adapter is working (usually it limit itself to copying firmware into appropiate place).

To connect this way to wireless network, root privileges are required. One should never log in to system as root. Root privileges are gained by entering in console su -.

Installation of required programs

On majority of distributions wpa_supplicant is located in the installation drive. All that has to be done is installing it. Depending on a distribution, commands will look more-or-less like this (one of the following):

rpm -Uvh path_to_file/wpa_supplicant.rpm

yum install wpa_supplicant

apt-get install wpasupplicant

DHCP client is installed by default in all major distributions.

Network configuration

Create (or edit) wpa_supplicant configuration. By default it's the file /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf, but if one pleases it can be put in arbitrary place. This file should have a following content:

ctrl_interface=/var/run/wpa_supplicant
ctrl_interface_group=wheel

network={
ssid="wmi"
key_mgmt=WPA-EAP
eap=PEAP
identity="s123456"
password="secret password"
}

Change accordingly lines identity i password.

Network initialization

To initialize a connection execute (as root) commands:

wpa_supplicant -B -i wlan0 -D wext -c /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf

dhclient wlan0

In examples above we presume that network adaper is named wlan0 and that installed driver supports so-called wireless extensions (this applies to majority of newer drivers).

Some distributions may be missing dhclient program, other programs with the same functionality are dhcpcd or pump.

MacOS 12-06-2018 14:36

MacOS

This site describes how to configure wireless network in Mac OS X Snow Leopard (v.10.6.4).

Click on the network icon near the clock and then click on "wmi"
Make sure that "Remember this network" field is checked. Fill in your login and password from LABS domain (the same that you use to log in in computer laboratories). Click OK
Click "Show Certificate" and select "wmi.amu.edu.pl" on the list. Make sure that "Always trust wmi.amu.edu.pl" field is checked and click "Next"
Fill in the password for account on your computer and click "OK"
Connection should be established

If you have trouble connecting despite providing valid credentials, your account might have been automatically locked due to too many invalid login attempts. Wait 2 minutes or visit the Laboratories Staff and ask for your account to be unlocked.

MacOS 12-06-2018 14:36

macOS

Configuration file needed for authentication is available in the WMI panel. Please download it using a browser other than Safari.

VPN Client for macOS is available at the project site. Please download the Stable version.

You need administrator rights to install and configure the VPN client.

Open the downloaded file and accept the message about installing an application downloaded from the Internet:

After the installation is complete select I have configuration files:

Double-click the file with .ovpn extension and select installation only for the current user:

From the system tray icon's menu select VPN Details...:

Clear the checkbox next to Check if the apparent public IP address changed after connecting and close the configuration window:

From the system tray icon's menu select Connect vpn-users:

Enter your credentials in the same way as in the computer laboratories:

The connection state is visible in the upper right corner:

Mail 12-06-2018 14:36

Mail

Faculty's mail server is available for all employees and students having an account in the LABS domain. Full mail address is in form login@wmi.amu.edu.pl where login is a username in the LABS domain.

Faculty Mail and University Mail are not the same service. Former offers e-mail in domain wmi.amu.edu.pl and is available only for employees and students of our Faculty. Latter offers addresses in st.amu.edu.pl and amu.edu.pl domains and is available for all students and employees of the University.

Mail receiving

Mail can be received in various ways.

WWW interface

Faculty's mail can be checked through WWW interface at https://poczta.wmi.amu.edu.pl/.

Mail clients

Mail can be checked with mail client, such as Mozilla Thunderbird. To be able to use such a program, configuration is necessary.

Receiving mail through IMAP

In account settings enter server name imap.wmi.amu.edu.pl, then username and password from the LABS domain. Select the SSL/TLS protocol and port 993.

Sending mail through SMTP

In account settings enter server name smtp.wmi.amu.edu.pl, necessarily turn on authorization and then enter credentials from the LABS domain. Select the SSL/TLS protocol and port 465.

Mail forwarding

If you prefer to use other mailbox than faculty's, but want to receive there all messages sent onto your student e-mail, you can set up mail forwarding.

Just insert address onto which you want your mail forwarded into file named .forward located in home directory. If you want to forward it to more than one address, place them in the same line, separating them with a coma. If copy of a message should remain in mailbox, add \s123456 (your login preceded with "\").

For example, if you'll write in .forward:

\s123456,xyzxyz@st.amu.edu.pl,login@drugiekonto.pl

messages will land in your mailbox and will be sent to two other addresses.

Mail filtering

Messages can be filtered by your mail client or by our mail server. If you want to use filtering on the server you should put Sieve (http://sieve.info/) rules in the file named .dovecot.sieve in yout home directory.

Mailing lists 12-06-2018 14:36

Mailing lists

For students and employees convenience mailing lists have been set up.

On Linux one may use remmina or xfreerdp programs. Then log in using the same credentials as in case of laboratories login. In case of problems set LABS as domain name or precede login with LABS\\ string sequence if you are running from command line.

On macOS official Microsoft Remote Desktop application is required.

Disconnecting without logout

Disconnected session will be active for at most 30 minutes - therefore it is possible to leave running programs and disconnect with a server and then reconnect e.g. from other computer.

To disconnect from remote session without logout - press "x" on a menu appearing on top of the screen or from Start Menu select arrow next to Log off and then Disconnect.

Known issues

Concurrent user limit

To ensure system stability, the number of concurrent users of the service is limited. The following message indicates a lack of space on the server at the time of connection:

Time Series Modelling 4

Time Series Modelling can be run on a given computer only by a single user. Launching it by another user at the same time causes incorrect operation on both instances.

Because of that TSM is incompatible with remote desktops and will not be available on the term server.

Visual Studio Code

Visual Studio Code can be run on a given computer only by a single user.

Because of that VSCode is incompatible with remote desktops and will not be available on the term server.

It is possible to request additional software/libraries/updates to install on a server - to do so, contact us.

Terminal servers 12-06-2018 14:36

Terminal servers

LABS domain users have a possibility of remote connection with following terminal servers:

Term (serwer Windows)
LTS (serwer Linux)

VPN 12-06-2018 14:36

VPN

VPN (Virtual Private Network) allows for a safe access to WMI's network from outside. By using the VPN, students and staff of the faculty can access their virtual machines, proxy and other services.

Configuration

Virtual machine for service hosting 12-06-2018 14:36

Virtual machine

We offer an option to launch a virtual machine for a grup of students realizing project as a part of classes at a Faculty if they need a specific configuration or additional services inaccessible on faculty's servers.

Machines are running in a Proxmox environment. Every new machine has an empty drive, so you can install any operating system. Because of hardware limitations (RAM) there is no possibility of running Windows on virtual machines.

Machine's parameters are:

1GB operational memory
20GB disk space

To obtain a virtual machine, create a ticket in helpdesk. Request should contain following informations:

to which project as a part of which classes will machine be used
why services available to all students are not sufficient
till when will machine be needed
contact informations of person responsible (name, surname, e-mail)
if machine is to be accessible from outside of the Faculty, specifying ports to be allowed on firewall is necessary
what operating system will be running on a machine

Rules of allowing traffic on a firewall:

there is no possibility of opening port 25,
access to databases and other services available for restricted user's group (administrators) whould take place through VPN,
if a service is available for an unlimited amount of users (clients) then probably it's qualified for access e.g. on ports 80, 443.

Moreover, services using faculty's LDAP server for authentication should assure adequate transmission encryption, e.g. enforce https.

Ater machine creation you will receive an e-mail from administrators with instructions on how to connect with a machine.

WMI Panel 12-06-2018 14:36

WMI Panel

To ease management of services available at the Faculty, students and employees have acces to WMI Panel. It is available at https://panel.wmi.amu.edu.pl.

To log in use credentials from the LABS domain - same as you use in laboratories.

After logging in Panel enables i.a. password change, MySQL database creation and VPN certificates download.

Windows 12-06-2018 14:36

Windows

You need administrator rights for the VPN client configuration.

OpenVPN Community for Windows is available at the project site. Download and install it.

Download the configuration file required for authorization from the WMI panel.

After OpenVPN Community has been installed double-click on the downloaded authorization file vpn-users.ovpn and confirm that you want to import it. A system message will be displayed on successful import.

Start OpenVPN GUI if it wasn't automatically started. The program icon will appear in the system tray, next to the clock.

The program icon in the system tray may be hidden.

To connect to the Faculty, right-click on the program icon, press Connect and provide your credentials (use your login and password from the LABS domain - the same which you use to log in computer laboratories):

If connection was succesfuly estabilished, a pop-up with the assigned IP should appear:

Windows - Connect 12-06-2018 14:36

Windows - OpenVPN Connect

OpenVPN Client for Windows is available at the project site.

Instructions for previous versions of OpenVPN can be found here.

You need administrator rights to install OpenVPN.

During installation system could ask you Would you like to install this…. It's installation of virtual network interface card, that is needed to VPN right functioning.

The configuration file required for authorization can be found in the WMI panel.

Development Android 12-06-2018 14:35

Development Android

Windows

Android SDK for Android version 32 and Android Studio are installed on Windows.

Notes

Because of incompatibility of the Android SDK, emulator must be run from disk P:

Because of incompatibility of the Android Studio, application project must be located on disk P:

Project preparation

It is best to keep project in Git repository. It is possible to create a local repository in home directory (as a subfolder of disk J:) or on faculty's server.

After cloning repository onto disk P:\ create project in it using Android Studio and commit all changes.

Emulator preparation

Every time after logging in to a computer user must execute a command wmi_mkandroid from command prompt (cmd.exe). This will create emulator and AVD device compatible with our infrastructure. It's files are located in P:\android_[login] and will be removed on system's shutdown.

Project launching

After opening a project in Android Studio, first start an emulator by going to Tools -> Device Manager -> Virtual and selecting green "play" button. After emulator displays home screen, it is possible to start a project in it.

Full procedure

Issues

Waiting for target device to come online

If after launching a project Android Studio shows message Waiting for target device to come online regardless of running emulator, one should:

close an emulator
restart emulator by Tools -> Device Manager -> Virtual and choosing "play"
wait for home screen
launch project again on a correct device (listed under Connected devices)

If that doesn't help, close emulator and Android Studio and again execute a command wmi_mkandroid in cmd.exe.

Other

First step in troubleshooting issues with Android Studio and SDK not described in this article should be deleting:

j:.android
j:.AndroidStudio2.3
c:\users\[login].android
c:\users\[login].emulator_console_auth_token

Linux

Android SDK for Android version 32 and Android Studio are installed on Linux.

Notes

Because of incompatibility of Android SDK, emulator must be run from local disk (/media/poligon)

Emulator preparation

Every time after logging in to a computer user must launch Android Studio from system menu or execute a command wmi_mkandroid from terminal in case of different method of Android Studio launching. This will create emulator and AVD device compatible with our infrastructure. It's files are located in /media/poligon/android_[login] and will be removed on system's shutdown.

Issues

In case of issues one should:

close emulator
shut down Android Studio
remove AVD by executing in terminal command /opt/nfs/android-sdk/tools/bin/avdmanager delete avd --name Nexus_5X
remove directories /home/students/LOGIN/.android and /home/students/LOGIN/.AndroidStudio*

Htpasswd 12-06-2018 14:35

htpasswd

There often emerges need to obtain version of password encoded by 'crypt()' algorithm.

htpasswd is a small program which enables it. We use it in the following way:

maciej@mgmt:~$ htpasswd -n login
New password:
Re-type new password:
login:$apr1$DWhj3Tsb$lyapRC3TJB.kj35xYlIHP/

$apr1$DWhj3Tsb$lyapRC3TJB.kj35xYlIHP/ is an encoded password.

Passwords in this form are required ie. in securing access to WWW pages.

MySQL 12-06-2018 14:35

MySQL

MySQL access

Students and employees can create up to two MySQL databases in user panel.

To gain access to project account's database, submit a ticket to helpdesk. Such application should contain name of a project account.

Database is available at mysql.wmi.amu.edu.pl.

phpMyAdmin is available at https://mysql.wmi.amu.edu.pl.

Databases use different credentials than standard user accounts.

Database connection is possible only from a computer in the LABS domain. Outside of a Faculty access may be gained using a terminal server or connecting via VPN.

Printing 12-06-2018 14:35

Printing

Limits

Every student has assigned limited number of sheets to use. Within this limit one can use printer \\printers.labs.wmi.amu.edu.pl\Printer_A1 located in a corridor A1 next to room A1-26 or \\printers.labs.wmi.amu.edu.pl\Printer_Lib located in the Library.

To check your current account balance, just click on an icon with a green letter P, located in taskbar's tray:

After clicking on Details user will be transferred to page https://printers.wmi.amu.edu.pl, where one can check printing history, hand over part of their balance to another user or print PDF directly from web browser.

Default student's sheet limit equals 30 pages per semester.

Unused sheets from winter semester are transfered to the summer one, and after that are discarded.

Sheets counting

Counted is always the amount of pages sent to a printer, not the amount of sheets coming out of it. That's why even if double-sided printing or printing multiple pages per sheet is set in printer's settings, substracted from user's balance will be the amount of logical pages.

To conserve one's balance, one should use programs' built-in multiple pages printing settings, for example Microsoft Word's ones. It is important that pages are composed by a program, before sending to a server, not by a printer.

Master thesis

Students have a possibility of printing their thesis (bachelor, engineering or master) once during the studies. For this, in room A1-26, they can increase their printing limit by the number of pages of thesis, but at most 100.

Own paper

There is no possibility of printing on your own paper. If you have to print greater amount of pages or have special requirements about paper - you can use one of many printers' points in Poznań. Our Faculty does not provide such services.

If your laptop is connected to the WMI network, you can print from it directly from Windows.

Open Control Panel -> Hardware and sound -> Devices and printers and click Add a printer:
Stop searching and click on The printer I want isn't listed:
Select Select a shared printer by name and enter printer's address, for example \\printers.labs.wmi.amu.edu.pl\Printer_A1_PS. Approve with Next button.
Enter login in LABS\s000000 format and LABS domain password, select password remembering:
Finish installation procedure.

Due to the system's security against the PrintNightmare attack, there is a chance that the printer will not install properly on Windows.

To disable the protection, open CMD with administrator privileges and type the command below. The given command allows you to install drivers as a non-admin user.
```
reg add "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Windows NT\Printers\PointAndPrint" /v RestrictDriverInstallationToAdministrators /t REG_DWORD /d 0 /f
```
This command makes your system vulnerable to PrintNightmare attack.

We do not take any responsiblilty for these actions. At the moment, we do not know a better way to solve this issue. After the installation of the printers, we recommend to re-enable protection by executing the following command:
```
reg add "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Windows NT\Printers\PointAndPrint" /v RestrictDriverInstallationToAdministrators /t REG_DWORD /d 1 /f

Profile 12-06-2018 14:35

Profile

Windows user's profile is a set of files and directories where user's program settings, desktop settings, HKCU registry branch and many more parameters allowing for personalization of user's work environment are stored.

In LABS domain, every user has his own directory assigned, where profile files are stored (that's \\files\profiles\<username>.v6 for Windows 10 i \\files\profiles\<username>.v4 for Windows 8.1). Disk limits ("quota") are imposed on that directory. Details about current disk quotas are to be found in WMI Panel.

Profile on its own - so settings which are stored in those files - is limited on operating system level.

Issues

If you have problem with your profile, visit Profile issues.

SSH access 12-06-2018 14:35

SSH access

What is it?

You can use shell on the LTS server, connecting to it by SSH (Secure Shell) procotol. This way you can work on the server almost like it's your own computer. It has many advantages, most importantly that wherever you connect, you always use the same account.

During a first connection your client will give you key's fingerprint of server you're connecting to. To rule out man in the middle attack, verify given fingerprint with fingerprints list of faculty's servers.

From Linux

On Linux most of the time ssh program is installed by default. Therefore to connect with LTS, it is sufficient to write:

ssh s123456@lts.wmi.amu.edu.pl

Where s123456 is your login.

If you're connecting for the first time, program will ask to accept server's identification.

After that standard credentials input, welcome message and command prompt will appear - you're ready to work on a server.

Automatic authentication without providing a password

Thanks to Kerberos protocol, logging in from laboratories' computers does not require password.

Windows

Just like on Linux, Windows 10 has ssh installed. To connect to the LTS server, use the same command in CMD:

ssh s123456@lts.wmi.amu.edu.pl

Earlier versions of Windows do not come with preinstalled SSH client. Therefore, we recommend to use popular program PuTTY, which is also available on Windows in laboratories.

After its startup it is enough to enter server address: lts.wmi.amu.edu.pl, select SSH protocol (port 22) and accept.

Like on Linux, on a first connection program will ask about acceptation of server's identicifation. Afterwards, black window for credentials input will appear.

What's next?

After that it's just like on every other Linux. If you'd like to learn basics of this system, we recommend enrolling on "Operating Systems" subject or checking resources which our University's Services offers.

Every student and employee of our Faculty has access to the Internet Information Services (IIS) server.

It is possible to host pages based on ASP.NET Core 1.1, 2.x and 3.x. Please indicate versions of .NET and ASP.NET in the ticket.

Access

To gain access to it create a new ticket using helpdesk and include following information:

user LABS domain login
proposed page address (by default https://<login>.iis.wmi.amu.edu.pl)
used technologies (.NET 4.x or .NET Core1.x/2.x/3.x, ASP.NET or ASP.NET Core)

Placing the page

After creating a page by administrators place the project data in the public_iis directory in your home directory.

In case of .NET Core publishing procedure will be sent as a response to the ticket.

Application update

To update application running on IIS:

create a file named app_offline.htm in main app's directory, which will contain message for users, e.g. Maintenance in progress
edit app's code
delete/rename app_offline.htm

Operation veryfying

The easiest way is to put a text file in a j:\public_iis\ directory and try to enter your page.

Aliases restrictions

Alias may consists only from lowercase letters, numbers and - symbol, where the first symbol must be a letter.
Alias cannot be a name of an another user in the LABS domain.
Some names that could lead to abuse, such as support or abuse are restricted.
If two users sets the same alias, it will work for one who set it first.
Using aliases against regulations and netiquette may result in their deactivation for a given user.

Web servers 07-06-2018 11:28

Web Servers

Every student (and employee) of our Faculty can set up their own website.

Address

If your login is s123456 your page address is https://s123456.students.wmi.amu.edu.pl/

There is also a possibility of setting up a page vhost in form https://<your name>.students.wmi.amu.edu.pl/

Employees' webpages are also available at https://login.faculty.wmi.amu.edu.pl/ and https://<your name>.faculty.wmi.amu.edu.pl/ in case of an alias..

Page deploying

Firstly, copy page files into public_html directory on lts.wmi.amu.edu.pl server. It means that:

Log in through SSH onto lts.wmi.amu.edu.pl server
Create directory for a website:
```
install -d ~/public_html
```

If directory haven't existed before, it's full activation may take up to 24h since creation.

Copy your page files there using scp, sftp or cp
Give those files appropiate permissions:
```
chmod -R a+rX ~/public_html
```
Read permission for directories is not required. If you don't want a liast with directory's content to show, you can revoke that permission.
Add permissions for user http to enter your home directory:
```
chmod o+x ~
```
Names of automatically showed or launched files are as follows:
```
index.html index.cgi index.pl index.php index.py index.xhtml index.htm
```

Remember that website is on a faculty's server, therefore it has to be in accordance with regulations. Particulary unacceptable is using a server for pursuing of any economic activities.

Mail aliases are also configured in a user’s panel.

Aliases restrictions

Alias may consists only from lowercase letters, numbers and - symbol, where the first symbol must be a letter.
Alias cannot be a name of an another user in the LABS domain.
Some names that could lead to abuse, such as support or abuse are restricted.

Windows

This tutorial describes the process of connecting a Windows PC to the WMI wireless network using a Windows 10 notebook as an example.

Windows Vista and Windows 7 require a certificate to be installed. You can use WMIWirelessSetup.exe to install it on your computer.

Click on the Wi-Fi icon in the taskbar (usually in the bottom right corner of the screen)
Select WMI from the list of available networks and click Connect
Enter your login credentials from the LABS domain - including "LABS" (the credentials that you use in computer laboratories), i.e. for example LABS\s12345, and click OK
If a warning appears, click Connect
The network will be saved and the connection will be estabilished

If you have trouble connecting despite providing valid credentials, your account might have been automatically locked due to too many invalid login attempts. Wait 2 minutes or visit the Laboratories Staff and ask for your account to be unlocked.
