Introduction -------------------------------------------- Detailed information is on our NRO SolarNetwork web page at http://solar.nro.nao.ac.jp/computer/ Questions and comments are welcome at manager@solar.nro.nao.ac.jp We will reply as soon as possible. -------------------------------------------- 2. How to Use Solar Radio Net -------------------------------------------- (1) Getting an Account, Temporal Usage for Short Term We will give a user ID to anybody who wants to study the astronomical/solar plasma physics by using Nobeyama data (Radioheliograph, Radio Polarimeter). You can get a form from our web site. There is also a guest account. Contact a manager for the ID name and password. (2) Templates for Configuration files Some Templates files are copied in your home directory when you first login our network. You can also use other templates in /share/template by copying and modifying them to fit your taste. (3) Computers and Devices The NRO Solar Radio Net consists of the following machines. ・Hosts and their Sites Room 21 helios1 Terminal(PC Linux-UbuntuCore2Duo 2.4GHz) helios4 Terminal(PC Linux-UbuntuCore2Duo 3.0GHz) helios7 Terminal(PC Linux-UbuntuCore2Duo 3.0GHz) aten2 Terminal(PC Linux-UbuntuPentium4 3.2GHz) aten3 Terminal(PC Linux-UbuntuPentium4 3.0GHz) delta Terminal (PC WinXP)   prcl Both-sides Color Printer (Epson LP8800) pre1 Both-sides Monochrome Printer (Epson LP9200PS3)   prxe Both-sides Color Printer (Fuji Xerox DocuCenter-II C4300) Room 22 helios0 Terminal(PC Linux-UbuntuCore2Duo 2.4GHz) helios2 Terminal(PC Linux-UbuntuCore2Duo 2.4GHz) helios3 Terminal(PC Linux-UbuntuCore2Duo 2.4GHz) helios5 Terminal(PC Linux-UbuntuCore2Duo 3.0GHz) helios6 Terminal(PC Linux-UbuntuCore2Duo 3.0GHz) Room 26 aten0 Terminal(PC Linux-UbuntuCore2Duo 3.0GHz) aten1 Terminal(PC Linux-UbuntuCore2Duo 3.0GHz) prc1 Both-sides Monochrome Printer (Canon LBP3410) Room 20 burst1 Analysis Server (PC Linux-SuSE) burst2 Analysis Server (PC Linux-SuSE) burst4 Gateway Server (PC Linux-RedHat) burst6 Analysis Server (PC Linux-Ubuntu) radio1 Analysis Server (PC Linux-RedHat) radio2 Analysis Server (PC Linux-RedHat) media1 Terminal (NEC/EWS SVR4) Non-fixed Terminal letsnote Terminal (LT-PC WinXP) * I/O Devices Note: Every terminals have own DVD-ROM/RW radio1, (Linux-RedHat) DAT DDS4 media1 (NEC/EWS SVR4) MO 5inch 1.3Gbyte 1024byte/sector 8mm Tape DAT DDS3 (4) Disk Area (Except for System Area) /home User's home directory /scr/s* Shared work area1 (s01,s02,s03,s04,s05) /solardb Solar observation data (including NRO data) /share Shared softwares * Disk usage limitation The following directories have a limitation for usage. Home directory /home/(username) Maximum 1Gbyte User's web files /scr/web/www/(username) Maximum 1Gbyte (5) Softwares Different kinds of OS's exist in our network. Refer to Item (2). * E-mail Use burst4 for sending and receiving e-mail, Login directly or use APOP (from outside NAO) or POP3 (only inside NAO). Note that the e-mail address for receiving is "username@solar.nro.nao.ac.jp" not "username@burst4.nro.nao.ac.jp". * Image Analysis Use following powerful hosts for analysis using IDL radio1 Analysis Server (RHEL Xeon3.6GHz 4CPU Main Memory 8Gbyte) radio2 Analysis Server (RHEL Xeon3.6GHz 4CPU Main Memory 8Gbyte) burst1 Analysis Server (SuSE Xeon2.9GHzQuad 2CPU Main Memory 32Gbyte) burst2 Analysis Server (SuSE Xeon2.9GHzQuad 2CPU Main Memory 32Gbyte) burst6 Analysis Server (Ubuntu Xeon3.0GHz 2CPU Main Memory 4Gbyte) * Free/Public Domain Softwares Various free/public domain softwares are available on burst4 and other Linux terminals. * Windows Softwares Cygwin(is inclueded the X server) Microsoft Office Adobe Creative Suite 3 Beside these, SSH(Putty), FTP, Image viewer etc. (6) How to Print For printing from UNIX hosts, lpr -P(printername) (PostScript file name) Site Name Note ------------------------------------------------------------ Room 21 prpe A0 Color (Epson PM9200C) Room 22 prcl Both-sides Color (Epson LP-8800) Room 22 prxe Both-sides Color (KONICA MINOLTA C452) Room 22 pre1 Both-sides Monochrome (Epson LP-9200PS3) Room 26 prc1 Both-sides Monochrome (Canon LBP3410) (7) Data Open by Web and Anonmous FTP Put the files under the following directories /scr/web/www/(username) # Web /archive/pub/user/(username) # Anonymous FTP These files are reachable by URLs http://solar.nro.nao.ac.jp/user/(username) ftp://solar.nro.nao.ac.jp/pub/user/(username) (8) How to get data from outside to our Anon. FTP server Use following URL for getting data from ourside anonymous user. ftp://solar.nro.nao.ac.jp/incomings/ The files will come to the following directory /scr/incomings Note that this directory will be cleaned up once a month. -------------------------------------------- 3. Network -------------------------------------------- (1) DHCP Your laptop can connect to our network by DHCP. (2) Access to Solar Radio Net from Outside The access from outside NAO has to go through the gateway host. Only SSH access is valid. 1. Login by using SSH to the gateway host 'sshsolar' % ssh sshsolar.nro.nao.ac.jp 2. After successful login to sshsolar, login again to the prefarable host such as burst1, power etc. burst4% ssh (hostname) (Note: burst4 is the canonical name of sshsolar) (3) PPP Connection PPP connection through the telephone line is available. Contact a manager for the method. -------------------------------------------- A1. How to Use Various Softwares -------------------------------------------- (1) Utility Following utility softwares are avilable by setting path to '/share/bin'. ・ idlh --> IDL with following packages Nobeyama Software (NoRH,NoRP,NoRS,NoRI), Local Package, Solar Software(norh norp sxt hxt eit mdi lasco trace nso), NAOJ-IDL,Magpack2 ・ mkjavamv --> make JavaScript movie (2) Solar Software "Solar Software" is under /share/ssw (3) NAOJ-IDL IDL package for analysis of Mitaka, Norikura, Okayama data under /share/naojidl (4) Magpack2 Computational package of Three-dimensional magnetic field from magnetogram produced by Prof. Sakurai (NAOJ) under /share/magpack2.
