AI Lab and Presentation room Computers

• Where:
  • AI LAB Presentation Room: rsg-pc147.cs
  • AI LAB DC2306: rsg-pc233.cs rsg-pc214.cs rsg-pc234.cs rsg-pc192.cs
• Hardware: ASUS M4A89GTD-PRO3, 8G Ram, 750G disk
• OS
  • All machines are dual boot Windows 7 and Ubuntu 14.04 Linux installed on them.
  • Windows 7 feature and software summary: https://cs.uwaterloo.ca/twiki/view/CF/Notes-W7U1404-M4A89GTD-750G-F15-Audio-Lab-v1
• Logon
  • All machines are part of the CS Core Active directory CS-GENERAL so you may use your CS userid and password
    • Example userid for CS: CS-GENERAL\userid
    • We do NOT currently have student.cs domain on these machines
      • So any students without a cs.general.ca domain account will have to use a local account.
        • Local accounts can be created by CS staff or the administrators, listed below, using the adudiolab and aiadmin accounts.
• Administrative Access on both both Windows and Linux
  • adudiolab and aiadmin - to be used by administrators for installing software and administrative tasks.
    • Currently: Richard has the password for the audiolab account and Pascal has the one for aiadmin
  • For local admin account login only: you must use this syntax for your userid: hostname\userid - example userid: rsg-pc233\audiolab
