Some random notes: To get the weather data over here, I ran the following command: # rsync -uvrzae ssh jbloom@grb.cfa.harvard.edu:/code/Weather . # rsync -uvazre ssh jbloom@grb.cfa.harvard.edu:/code/Weather/MyCode MyCode rsync -uvazre ssh jbloom@grb.cfa.harvard.edu:/code/Weather/MyCode/ ~weatherman/Devel/MyCode/ # rsync -uvazre ssh jbloom@grb.cfa.harvard.edu:/code/Weather/Software/ ~weatherman/Devel/Software/ rsync -uvazre ssh jbloom@grb.cfa.harvard.edu:/code/Weather/Software/pyserial-1.18/ ~weatherman/Devel/Software/pyserial-1.18/ In general, the software development will be here on the weather computer. TODO: set up remote CVS. NFS mounting info from Ted: Josh, I had to change things around a bit from what we discussed. The directory exists on flwo48. and is /pool/weather. I mount it on linmax with this line in /etc/fstab: flwo48:/pool/weather /var/www/weather nfs You probably want the second arg to point elsewhere. It shows up in our web pages at: http://linmax.sao.arizona.edu/weather/weather.html And is referenced from our home page at: http://linmax.sao.arizona.edu/ under heading FLWO Weather Cheers, Ted INSTALLING THE REQUIRED SOFTWARE: ---------------------------------- 1.
