Overview

At NILU we have a powerful resource of computers available for running various meteorological codes. The documentation here is provided to help you work on the servers efficiently from your own desktop. These guides will hopefully also be useful for running code on any other cluster computers including the Norwegian Super Computing Resources and ECMWF.

For some information on the server resources available at NILU see jalla.

To see the status of the servers check here: CPUUSAGE.

Connecting to the Servers

There are many tools that make connecting to the servers easier, from passwordless login (which is more secure), to making sure you have your display settings set properly. Add you tips and tricks here to help your colleagues work more efficiently.

Printing to Print-Anywhere

This is a How-To for Ubuntu users to set up NILU's Print Anywhere printers:

1) Go to Printing>Add Printer

2) Select Network Printers

3) Once a list shows up of options, select SAMBA print

4) Add smb://print-srv1/Print-Anywhere to the device location (Don't Browse)

5) Choose to authenticate: USER= NILU\your_inside_username *Note the "NILU\" domain string*

6) DON'T Verify

7) That's it, follow the rest of the wizard.

For the driver, I chose.. Canon --> Image Runner C5185i (worked for me...)

8) Be sure to change default setting to use A4 paper rather than Letter.
