Agenda - 12 October 2011
State of Security
Would like to probe all labs.
In the future, probe all labs by default, and email faculty to see if they want to be taken off the list.
Email vulnerability report to all faculty
Follow up to see if security holes fixed.
Animation Lab
Discussed recent problems with some student data being lost when machines were re-imaged
Plan to put up a sign that saving data to the local hard drive could result in data being lost (e.g. disk failure) and to come to 1140 TMCB to get a network share
Use a TB of network storage for the lab
Investigate buying additional storage as needed
CS 100
Advantageous to have a laptop
80% (via informal survey) have one already
A request to have Adobe software – should we allow changes in the middle of the semester?
For the long term, investigate booting machines from an image
Route Y Login versus CS login
OIT will automatically populate groups for CS and for classes in CS
Would like to just use Route Y logins – simple administration and can always restrict to CS accounts only in the future if needed
Let OIT run Route Y for the Windows labs
MAC address registration
