Markus auto-marking backend

~isg/bin on linux.student.cs is a collection of legacy assignment marking scripts that drive the back-end of the Markus auto-marking setup (even though Markus is not really meant for automarking, but for annotation of student submissions only).

The relevant files and directories pertaining to these marking scripts are:

• ~isg/bin/public*
• ~isg/bin/rst*

Relevant configuration files are in:

• ~isg/bin/data
• ~csNNN/.rstrc

To disable the auto-marking backend, comment out the

test_servers ...

~csNNN/.rstrc

• Create directory in markus@markus.student.cs:~/ and update configuration accordingly
• Create database on postgres.student.cs (see config from above)
• Add proxy info to /etc/apache/sites-available/markus
• Check if markus@markus.student.cs can ssh into course@linux.student.cs
• Check if course@linux.student.cs can ssh into markus@markus.student.cs (some courses need this)
