Is there a default .cshrc and .login available?On NCSA machines, the directory /u/skel contains skeleton .cshrc and .login files that are given to all new logins. How do I update my NCSA email forwarding address?On an NCSA HPC machine, edit the file /var/forward/$USER/.forward and change the email address to the new one. I get the error "not a plain file" when I try to transfer files with FTP.The error "not a plain file" usually indicates that FTP cannot transfer a file because it is larger than 2 Gbytes in size. First, if you are transferring files from one of NCSA's HPC systems, use mssftp or msscmd instead of ftp. (See the man pages for details.) If you are not on one of NCSA's HPC systems, you may be able to use one the following commands at the FTP prompt: get remotebigfile "|cat > localbigfile" put "|cat < localbigfile" remotebigfile where remotebigfile is the name of the file on the remote computer and localbigfile is the name of the file on the local computer. If the local system's cat command supports large files, this should work fine. How can I set a default project on Copper (when I have multiple active projects)?There is no utility currently for a user to set a default project. You can set a project for a batch job to be charged with the LoadLeveler directive: #@ account_no If the account_no directive is not specified, the batch job will be charged to the first project listed for the user in the file /etc/project. Interactive jobs are charged to the user's default group (specified in the file /etc/passwd). To request that your default project be changed, send a request to consult@ncsa.uiuc.edu. |
