Document Management Rule

[A new site]

Thank Xun for updating dogbert environment as Studio tool smith.

Now we have a new URL for our team web site.

http://dogbert.mse.cs.cmu.edu/Mse2001/Projects/Bravo!/

Old page are still available at

http://dogbert.mse.cs.cmu.edu/Mse2001/Projects/Bravo!/E-Bravo!/

[Security & Document]

As we know, we have to protect client intellectual information.

Therefore we had better store all project related information

including minutes, planning, technical research besides requirement

on protected space. I believe dogbert is not good place to store

confidential information. Therefore I propose to save these documents

on our Linux machine (msepc32.sp.cs.cmu.edu) under password protection.

[Document management rule]

1. Make your account and password on msepc32 to read protected documents.

i) Login msepc32 by telnet

ii) type the following command

$ /usr/local/apache/bin/htpasswd /usr0/bravo/htdocs/.htpasswd yuzo

# You will be asked to enter password

# Change password at appropriate rate.

2. Backup your documents by yourself (maybe in your local disk)

i) As you know, even dogbert is not being backed up.

ii) No plan to back up Linux so far.

3. Store useful and confidential document on msepc32 to share among team.

i) You might want to use samba to transfer files between NT and Linux.

ii) Change password for samba like this:

[yuzo@msepc32 /]$ /usr/bin/smbpasswd

Old SMB password:

New SMB password:

Retype new SMB password:

Password changed for user yuzo

[yuzo@msepc32 /]$

iii) How to map Linux disk as part of windows file system

- Run explorer, winfile, dosprmpt, whatever you want.

- Specify the disk like this \\msepc32\bravo

- If you specified the same ID/PWD on NT and Linux, the disk

- Will be automatically mapped. If you didn’t, you will be asked.

- So, specify the Linux ID and samba password defined above.

iv) Which directory should we store files in?

- Use \\msepc32\bravo\htdocs\

- I already made "teamdocs" under htdocs.

- You might want to make subdirectories, please do.

4. Store useful and not confidential information such as TSPi template or

team member's class schedules on dogbert.

\\dogbert\html\dogbert.mse.cs.cmu.edu\Mse2001\Projects\Bravo!

5. Update our team web pages as you like to make links to your documents

on Linux or dogbert. HTML files are stored in the above directory.
