Accounts on ITP Servers

You can request to have an account on one of the following ITP servers:

QuickTime Streaming Server
Flash Communication Server
TOMCAT/Java Servlet Account
MySQL Account

Help pages on ITP Servers and Accounts at:
http://itp.nyu.edu/help/servers.html


You can also request a class directory be set up on itp.nyu.edu. This directory would have the URL: http://itp.nyu.edu/classname/

You would update this directory through your netid account login to itp.nyu.edu. If more than one person needs access to the directory then we can set up a group and grant permission to other netid's to edit the directory.
You can request a redirect be set up so that students can easily remember your URL.
So that: http://itp.nyu.edu/somename/
will automatically redirect to: http://itp.nyu.edu/classname/~netid/

Weblog/Blog - with MoveableType

You may want to create a blog for your class or encourage your students to set up their own blog. "Blog," short for "weblog," refers to a web page which has small chunks of text (often with hyperlinks) posted in chronological order.

File Sharing Server: we are in the process of setting up a new sharing server. This will be a server that students and faculty can reach on the floor from either a MAC or PC to temporarily store data. This server will need to be cleaned periodically depending on how heavily it is used and how efficient everyone is in removing files they don't need. A message will be sent to the itp-announce list before this is done. If you need a permanant folder set up on this server please let us know.
