314: \item \underline{Important:} Check that the permissions and user-ownership of the files
315: are the same as those in the examples above. If the group shown is not {\tt
316: cai}, then change the working directory to {\tt
317: teacher/CAPA46} by typing: {\tt cd /usr/user3/teacher/CAPA46} and then {\tt chgrp -R cai *}
318: to change the group of all the files. Similarly, if the owner shown is not
319: {\bf teacher}, then change the working directory to {\tt teacher/CAPA46} by
320: typing: {\tt cd /usr/user3/teacher/CAPA46} and then {\tt chown -R teacher *} to change the
321: owner of all the files in the {\tt CAPA46} directory and subdirectories. Also double check that {\tt capalogin} and {\tt capasbin} have set UID permission.
322:
323: \item Note: If you have created user IDs for classes in addition to {\tt nsc111f8},
324: they will appear as subdirectories in {\tt teacher/CAPA46/}. The ownership and group should be teacher
325: and cai as well. The same prototype files and folders as in
326: {\tt teacher/CAPA46/nsc111f8} must be placed in each sub-directory ( copy and edit them as needed).

329: \item Some notes:
330: \begin{enumerate}
331: \item The \LaTeX{} and dvi programs must be properly installed on the host
332: machine in order for {\tt quizzer} to format the problem sets.
333: See your system administrator for help in installing these programs.
334: \item For a broad range of terminal emulators to be able to access the
335: system\footnote{by G. Perkins, MSU P/A Dept.}, it is necessary to modify the
336: {\tt /etc/termcap} file to accommodate the appropriate vt100 \label{vtEmul}
337: terminal attributes, including handling non-standard nomenclature used by
338: terminal emulation programs on Macs and PCs. A notable example is the widely
339: used {\it tn} program that is part of FTP Software, Inc.'s PC/TCP package. This
340: program negotiates its terminal type with the host computer using the prefix
341: {\tt dec-}
342: for the {\tt vt} family of terminals ({\it e.g.,} it requests terminal type
343: {\tt dec-vt100} instead of {\tt vt100}). This prefix, if unknown to the Unix
344: host, may cause the negotiation to result in an incorrect terminal type or to
345: fail completely. \\
346: The line in the standard {\tt /etc/termcap} file that reads\\ \\
347: {\tt d0|vt100|vt100-am|vt100am|dec vt100:$\backslash$ } \\ \\
348: should be edited to read:\\ \\
349: {\tt d0|vt100|vt100-am|vt100am|dec-vt100|dec vt100:$\backslash$ } \\ \\
350: thereby establishing {\tt dec-vt100} as an official synonym for {\tt vt100}.
351: Note that the ``{\tt dec-vt100}'' entry is different from the ``{\tt dec vt100}''
352: entry. We advise adding the new alias rather than changing the existing alias
353: and possibly causing other problems.
354: A similar change can be made on other operating systems which use the
355: {\tt /etc/termcap} method of terminal definition. Unix systems using the
356: {\it terminfo} program instead will support similar minor changes to the
357: appropriate file or files in the {\tt /usr/lib/terminfo} directory tree (consult
358: your system administrator for details). Be prepared to make similar changes in
359: case other terminal emulation programs at your site use their own non-standard
360: terminal type nomenclature.
361: \end{enumerate}
362: \item The \capa\ system should now be completely installed. You may start writing
363: problem sets, but we recommend reading the system description and taking the
364: guided tour.
365: \end{enumerate}

367: \newpage
368:
369: The whole package for NeXTstep Operating system is essentially the same
370: as described previously, the difference in applications is that
371: Quizzer and Grader are named Quizzer.app and Grader.app respectively.
372: The following items describe how to create an account
373: on the NeXTStep Operating system, Version 3.3.
374:
375: \begin{enumerate}
376: \item Log in as the super-user (root).
377: \item Create a new user group called {\tt cai}. Use the menu obtained from opening the file\\ {\tt /NextAdmin/UserManager} in the File Viewer and double-clicking on its icon.
378: \begin{enumerate}
379: \item select {\bf Group}
380: \item select {\bf New} to create a new user group
381: \item In the domain window, click {\bf OK}
382: \item type {\bf cai} in the group name field
383: \item select {\bf Save} to save the user group
384: \end{enumerate}
385: \item Create an Instructor account called {\tt teacher}, using the menu of {\tt /NextAdmin/UserManager}:
386: \begin{enumerate}
387: \item select {\bf User}
388: \item select {\bf New}
389: \item select {\bf Local} as user type
390: \item select {\bf Groups}
391: \item select {\bf cai} in the User Group Info window
392: \item set default group as {\bf cai}
393: \item select {\bf Long Form}
394: \begin{enumerate}
395: \item {\bf User's Full Name}: ( i.e., instructor's full name or another description, such as \capa\ Instructor)
396: \item{\bf Username}: teacher
397: \item{\bf Password}: (enter a password), case sensitive
398: \item{\bf User ID}: (A number selected by the operating system)
399: \item{\bf Home Directory}: /teacher
400: \item{\bf Login Shell}: /bin/csh
401: \end{enumerate}
402: \item select {\bf Save} in the menu; follow the instructions, verify password.
403: \item select {\bf Yes} to create a home directory, then wait for the save to be completed.
404: \end{enumerate}
405: \item Create an account that will be used by the students in the class to login called {\bf nsc111f8}
406: \begin{enumerate}
407: \item Locate the file {\tt /etc/shells} in the File Viewer. Double-click its icon to open the file with {\tt Edit.app}. This will enable you to edit the file, so that the code {\tt /teacher/CAPA46/capalogin} acts as a valid Login shell under UNIX. To complete this:
408: \begin{enumerate}
409: \item Add the line below to the {\tt /etc/shells} file:\\
410: {\tt /teacher/CAPA46/capalogin}\\
411: {\footnotesize (with a $<$CR$>$ at the end)}
412: \item select {\bf Save} in the menu.
413: \end{enumerate}
414: \item Continuing with {\tt /NextAdmin/UserManager}
415: \begin{enumerate}
416: \item select {\bf New User}
417: \item select {\bf Local} as user type
418: \item select {\bf Groups}
419: \item select {\bf cai} in the User Group Info window
420: \item set default group as {\bf cai}
421: \item select {\bf Long Form}
422: \begin{enumerate}
423: \item {\bf User's Full Name}: ( i.e., Natural Science Students Fall 1998)
424: \item {\bf Username}: {\it classname} (here enter: nsc111f8)
425: \item {\bf Password}: (none, just hit return)
426: \item {\bf User ID}: (a number selected by the operating system)
427: \item {\bf Home Directory}: {\it teacher sub-directory} (here enter : /teacher/CAPA46/nsc111f8)
428: \item {\bf Login Shell}: /teacher/CAPA46/capalogin (this specification is the one that limits student access)
429: \end{enumerate}
430: \item select {\bf Save} in the menu; a warning message may appear
431: \item select {\bf OK}, check values.
432: \item To the prompt: {\bf Create User Home Directory}, say {\bf No}. \\ This is very important; Students do not get file space.
433: \item {\bf Quit} UserManager
434: \end{enumerate}
435: \end{enumerate}
436: \item Return to the file {\tt /etc/shells}
437: \item Edit the file by removing the line\\ {\tt /teacher/CAPA46/capalogin} \\ {\footnotesize Note: This allows students to login but only under the restrictions placed by the {\tt capalogin} code. Otherwise, students (i.e., user {\it nsc111f8}) could login on your computer and see or modify all the files in teacher that have group read/write permission.}
438: \item select {\bf File/Save}
439: \item select {\bf File/Close}
440: \item {\bf Quit} Edit
441: \item Several {\bf Username} sub-directories which students use to login and that hold all of the necessary files
442: can be placed under the teacher account, just as was done for nsc111f8 above, i.e.,
443: phy232f8, cem152f8, xph232f8, etc.
444: \item {\bf logout} as root.
445: \end{enumerate}
