NCMM Scientific Computing IT
- Ssh_at_ncmm: On ssh at UiO and NCMM
- NCMM CryoEM Computing platform: Details about the CryoEM data processing setup of the Luecke && Sekulic groups
- biotin{2,3}.hpc.uio.no and associated VM machines: General usage departmental and Bioinformatics applications servers.
- biotin4.hpc.uio.no: General usage departmental and Bioinformatics applications server.
- frigg.uio.no: Server acting as an anonymous FTP server and secure file upload service (replaced biotin.uio.no in January 2021).
- prometheus.uio.no : prometheus.uio.no is the front-end node for the NCMM cryoSPARC platform. cryoSPARC is a platform used for obtaining 3D structural information from single-particle cryoEM data. You can see our installation in action at http://prometheus.uio.no:3900
Information for New Users
The following items are readily available on the laptops provisioned by IT @ NCMM:
- Wi-Fi
- Printing
You can set these up by just entering your username and password.
When you set up the Eduroam Wi-Fi, the username should include @uio.no. Eduroam on your smart phone can be setup with the aid of the app geteduroam.
You can print to NCMM printers from your computer or smart phone. On your smart phone, please use EveryonePrint (or SAFEQ Cloud) to print to an NCMM printer. To access an NCMM printer, use your Forksningsparken / NCMM access card. You can also use [mobilprint.uio.no https://mobilprint.uio.no] for printing. You can also manage your printing queues at utskrift.uio.no.
General services
- Use passord.uio.no when you have issues with your password, or to change your password.
- Connect to view.uio.no via VMWare Horizon or browser for access to some UiO virtual machines.
- utskrift.uio.no for printing management.
- mobilprint.uio.no for mobile printing management.
These are shared directories setup on the servers Pythagoras or Biotin4.
Computational resources
Biotin4 and Fox on Educloud.

Supported hardware and supported hardware vendors
In an effort to provide the best available service to NCMM users and researchers, we use Dell desktops and laptops, for running Windows and Linux. This allows us to have up to a "next day repair" service of level if your hardware breaks down.

Windows
Installing UiO linux(es) on Dell Laptops
The BIOS must be configured in a specific way to PXE boot UiO Linux
When accessing file shares via CIFS/SMB from outside of NCMM, we recommend tunneling the connection through SSH. For example, for biotin2:
-
ssh -L 10139:localhost:139 USERNAME@biotin2.hpc.uio.no
- connect to
smb://localhost:10139
(for example, in macOS via "Connect to Server"), enter your login and password and select the correct network share
Instead of port 10139 you can use any other port in the range of 1024-65535.
Software
Adobe Cloud
Problem: User does not have access to the Apps tab of the Adobe Cloud panel app.
Solution:
Windows
Exit the Creative Cloud application.
Open File Explorer and navigate to C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Adobe\OOBE\Configs.
Move the ServiceConfig file to the desktop and confirm Administrator privileges if prompted.
Right-click the file and open with Notepad.
Change the following value:
<name>AppsPanel</name><visible>false</visible>
to
<name>AppsPanel</name><visible>true</visible>
Save and close the file
Move the file back to the folder it was in (C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Adobe\OOBE\Configs) and confirm Administrator privileges if prompted.
Restart the computer (not sure if this is needed - logging out and in of the Adobe app might be enough).
Apps panel should now be available.
macOS
Exit the Creative Cloud application.
Open Finder, click Go in the menubar, and then Go to Folder...
Type /Library/Application Support/Adobe/OOBE/Configs
Copy the ServiceConfig file to the desktop.
Right-click the file and open with TextEdit.
Change the following value:
<name>AppsPanel</name><visible>false</visible>
to
<name>AppsPanel</name><visible>true</visible>
Save and close the file.
Move the file back to the folder it was in (/Library/Application Support/Adobe/OOBE/Configs) and Authenticate with your password if prompted.
Log out of the Adobe panel app, and log back in.
Apps panel should now be available.
Linux administration
Local home directory
To override the home directory for a user, use the following command:
