CALS Student Computing Manual
As a CALS student, you will use computers to accomplish all kinds of tasks:
Keep notes, complete assignments, and prepare reports and resumes
Communicate using e-mail, on-line discussion groups and chat rooms
Register on-line, participate in surveys, take on-line tests and quizzes
Run simulations and discipline software
Take readings and measurements, maintain and analyze data
Conduct research, access campus and world-wide information
Develop and deliver electronic presentations
In the process you will develop computing skills that will benefit you as you move through your
degree, apply for employment, or take an advanced degree. First, you need to become familiar
with the computing resources that are available to you here at NC State. The campus has many
types of computers and software, and this manual is just intended to help you get started. It
contains many links to Web sites with useful information, so keep it around!
If you find yourself asking the following questions, this manual should be helpful to you:
How do I ensure my ID and password are set up correctly?
How do I find and use computers in different computing facilities?
What software is available and how do I use it?
What is my e-mail address?
How do I use campus e-mail system?
How do I find my way around the Web?
How do I save my documents, e-mail, Web pages, etc.?
How do I print and how do I get more print quota?
How do I connect to campus from home or dorm?
How do I get more help and training?
Hints for Excellence: be prepared to ask for help and advice, but first take time to try and
figure out how to do things yourself--you won’t learn if someone else does it for you. Here’s an
ironclad guarantee: you’ll never regret the efforts you make to learn more about using
computers!

NOTE: much of the information contained in this manual
is available on the ITD "Essentials @ NC State" Web site:
http://www.ncsu.edu/it/essentials/
This should be your first stop for information pertaining
to information technology on campus, computer labs, email accounts, student file space, printing, and more.
2
I. Unity IDs and Passwords
Your Unity ID and password is your key to dozens of electronic campus resources. You will use
your Unity ID and password to access email, most computer labs on campus, library
resources/databases, file space, Web space, registration information, and class resources stored
on course management systems like WebCT and Wolfware.
Your Unity ID consists of your first initial, middle initial, and last name (up to six characters).
For accounts created after fall 2004, your initial Unity password is the last four digits of your
Campus ID number plus the month and day (mmdd) of your birthday. Consider changing your
password in the first week or two of the semester. To change your password, go to the campus
Web page for this purpose, and follow the instructions: http://www.ncsu.edu/password
Use this option any time that you want to change your password again. Remember your new
password. If you forget it, you will need to go to computing services, room 208, and show them
your ID to reset it.
Your Unity ID is the basis for creating your e-mail address. For example, if your Unity ID is
absmith, your Unity e-mail address is: absmith@ncsu.edu.
For detailed information about your Unity account, visit the ITD Web site:
http://www.ncsu.edu/it/essentials/your_unity_account/
Hints for Excellence: Never share your password with anyone, and never let anyone use a
computer that you are logged into--you will be responsible for anything that is done in your
name. Change your password occasionally.
3
II. Unity File Space
Each student is allotted 300mb of free network file space to store files, email, and Web pages on
the university network. This allocation is a recent upgrade from 50mb of total file space.
Students can make changes to their file space allocation by visiting the Web site:
https://sysnews.ncsu.edu/tools-bin/usmdb-quota
4
III. K: Drive, AFS File Space, Lockers, USB Media
Each student is allotted 300mb of free network file space to store files and work on the university
network (e-mail and Web pages count toward this 300mb allotment). This system is technically
referred to as the Andrew File System (AFS). AFS allows you to create a file in one physical
space (library Unity lab), and then access and edit/print that file in another networked location on
campus (Brooks lab).
How to save and access files in your Unity file space:
•
•
•
from Windows PCs: choose “My Computer” and select the virtual drive with your Unity
user ID (K: drive)
from Apple PCs: your personal Unity space (Home drive folder) will be on the Desktop
from your own computer in labs or a dorm: use FTP to transfer files to your Unity file
space; consult the following Web site: http://www.eos.ncsu.edu/guide/ftp
General information about AFS file space and accessing this space can be obtained from the ITD
Web site: http://www.ncsu.edu/it/essentials/managing_files/afs.html
Users may request additional file space for a fee, and these added file accounts are referred to as
“lockers." More information about lockers can be obtained from the ITD Web site:
http://www.ncsu.edu/it/essentials/managing_files/locker_instruct.html
If you prefer to keep copies of your files with you, you can save your work to a number of
external media, including zip discs, 3.5" diskettes, and USB thumb drives. The ports available to
you will vary by machine, however most new machines should include USB ports for saving
files to a USB thumb drive. Zip and 3.5" ports will likely be phased out over time on campus
machines. USB is the external media of choice, as these drives are small and portable, typically
can be exchanged between Windows/Apple machines, and can hold large amounts of data for a
small price. If interested in USB media, visit any local office supply store, or a computer supply
store online (pcmall.com, macmall.com) and search for "USB" portable/removable drives.
Hints for Excellence: Keep backups of your disks. Keep your work well organized and easy to
find (folders for each class?). Use descriptive file names.
5
IV. E-mail and Webmail
The preferred way to access NC State e-mail is via the Web (also called Webmail and squirrel
mail): http://webmail.ncsu.edu
If you don't wish to use the Webmail interface, or if you prefer to set up Eudora, Outlook,
Mozilla, or other e-mail programs to read your NC State e-mail, apply the settings at:
http://www.ncsu.edu/resnet/pages/email_setup/email_setup.php
NC State e-mail is stored on an IMAP (Internet Message Access Protocol) server, which counts
toward your total file space allocation of 300mb. IMAP allows e-mail messages to be
continuously stored on an NC State server so they can be accessed from any Web browser or
compatible mail client on the Web. For information about IMAP, visit:
http://www.ncsu.edu/it/essentials/email_messaging/imap/
Hints for Excellence: Use e-mail regularly to contact instructors, advisors, other students,
prospective employers, research sources, etc. Check your mail regularly so you can respond to
messages in a timely way. Use mail folders to organize mail you want to keep. Delete unwanted
mail.
6
V. Student Web Pages
NC State provides storage space on a Web server for every student, which counts toward the
300mb of total file space allocation. Students must first use the WWW Setup Tool to establish
their account: https://sysnews.ncsu.edu/tools-bin/www-setup
Next, students create their Web pages using a program such as Dreamweaver (freely available to
all students in public Unity computing labs).
Finally, students transfer their Web pages to their new Web directory using an FTP (file transfer
protocol) program. The FTP program should point to the address "ftp.ncsu.edu" with the
student's Unity ID and password entered in the appropriate log-in fields.
After transferring their Web files, the student's Web pages are accessible online at the Web
address corresponding to the student's Unity ID: http://www4.ncsu.edu/~your_unityID
7
VI. Computing Facilities
There are many different computing facilities on campus:
some are university facilities that any student can use and
that are open at all hours; some are college facilities that
may close at night and may also be scheduled sometimes
for classes; and some facilities are laboratory classrooms,
only available during class time.
These facilities contain a mix of Windows, Apple, and
UNIX computers, so it is difficult to provide information
in this handout that won’t be confusing as you move from
one lab to another. The best approach is to check each
facility for information about using the computers there-most should have handouts to help you get started.
University and College Computing Labs
nine public Unity computing labs maintained by ITD (six open 24 hours a day):
http://www.ncsu.edu/it/essentials/connections_labs/unity_computer_labs/
college-maintained computing labs:
http://www.ncsu.edu/it/essentials/connections_labs/
campus_computer_labs/campus_labs.html
CALS-specific computing labs:
http://www.cals.ncsu.edu/computing/facilities/student_labs.html
CALS currently maintains 22 computer labs with 315 Windows and 90 Apple stations. Most
CALS labs can be reserved for classes, so they are not always open for individual use. Students
can check labs for reserved times using the Web link above. Rooms 11 and 13 in Polk Hall are
the exception--these labs are always open for student use (8am-5pm). The major computer labs
in CALS are located as follows:
•
•
•
•
•
1400 Williams Hall
10, 11, and 13 Polk Hall
105 Scott Hall
102 Schaub Hall
2719 and 2720 Bostian Hall
Please familiarize yourself with the rules of use for public computing labs on campus:
http://www.ncsu.edu/it/rulesregs/labs/
8
Non-Traditional Computing Spaces
ITD also provides 21 IMac kiosks around campus,
usually in the entries to major classroom buildings.
These quick-check stations provide student access to
Webmail and campus event calendars.
Students should also be aware that starting Spring 2005, several new computing spaces are
available for reservation in both the Talley Student Center (Flyspaces) and the D.H. Hill Library
(the Collaboratory). These rooms provide small groups of 2-6 persons access to a technologyrich, collaborative team space. Technology in each Talley Flyspace includes two stationary
computers with flatscreens on pivot arms, plug-in ports for students to bring their own laptops
and equipment, a DVD-VCR tape player, and a flat panel monitor mounted on the wall for
viewing files or media. Flyspaces can be reserved in two-hour blocks.
For more information, or to reserve the Collaboratory, visit,
http://www.lib.ncsu.edu/ads/dml/reserve.html
For more information, or to reserve a Flyspace, visit: http://www.ncsu.edu/flyspace/
Do I Need My Own Computer at NC State?
NC State and CALS do not currently have any computer requirements for students. Most
students do choose to bring either a desktop or laptop computer to campus. For those who do not
have their own equipment, many public computer labs are available. If you are interested in
purchasing a computer for use on campus, some minimal computer specifications are available:
http://www.ncsu.edu/it/compspecs/
Hints for Excellence: become familiar with different types of computers (different keyboards,
mice, logins, operating systems), and with moving your work from one computer to another.
This will work for you both here at NC State and when you move into the workplace.
9
VII. Available Software
Dozens of software programs have been licensed and are available for student use in Unity and
college computing labs. For a list of frequently used software at NC State, visit the Web site:
http://www.ncsu.edu/it/essentials/software_ncstate/freq_used.html
Click on the name of the software program you are interested in using for a description and a list
of campus locations where the product may be found.
Common software applications you are likely to use as an NC State student, include:
Microsoft Word for word-processing
Microsoft Excel for spreadsheets
Microsoft PowerPoint for presentations
Internet Explorer or Mozilla Web browser for Web access
Webmail (on a Web browser) for e-mail access
Macromedia applications for developing Web pages and resources (Dreamweaver,
Fireworks, Flash, etc.)
Norton Antivirus for virus protection
Software applications you may use in some courses or for more specialized work include:
Arcview for GIS-related work
SAS for sophisticated statistical applications
Microsoft Access for database work
Maple for math
Discipline-specific software (may only be available in a specific college computing lab)
Most PC and Apple computers also include CD-ROM drives. Some classes may require you to
use CD-ROMs to run simulations or special programs, or to access image or video libraries. You
can also use your own CD-ROMs in CALS computing labs; however, you may not usually run
programs that require installation on the computer’s hard drive in these facilities.
Hints for Excellence: learn to use the software in the “Common Software” list even if your
current instructors aren’t requiring them. You will quickly find how useful they are to help you
do your work more effectively, maintain good notes and records, and produce high quality
assignments and reports.
10
VIII. Printing and Copying
Students can print to laser printers in Unity labs for .06 per black/white page (.60 per color page).
Student must first establish and add money to their WolfCopy account in one of several
locations:
* DH Hill Library, Photocopy Services desk adjacent to the main lobby
* Administrative Services I, Sullivan Drive
* Materials Management Warehouse, 3420 Ligon Street
How it works: students can print directly to a lab printer
after logging in with their Unity ID (which automatically
recognizes how much money they have left in their print
quota).
Students can also log into the printing network, browse
to a file on their computer, and select the printer to
which they want to print (any networked printer on
campus): http://print.ncsu.edu/
For more information about printing on campus, visit:
http://www.ncsu.edu/it/essentials/managing_files/printing/faq_wolfprint.html
To make copies on campus, various campus copiers are available
and maintained by WolfCopy. Students can purchase copies for 4.9
cents per page if using their WolfCopy card. The all-campus ID card
can also be used, but ID cards must first be encoded for copying at
the ID office in the West Dunn building. Cash copies, where
available, are .10 per page.
11
IX. Large Format Poster Printing
Large format HP DesignJet 1055CM color printers are available for student use in 1400
Williams Hall and in the Ricks Hall Annex. The printers are set up for the creation of posters
with 36” wide coated or high gloss photo paper. Because of the high cost of materials for the
printer, use is restricted. CALS majors and non-majors enrolled in CALS classes are eligible to
print large color posters for class projects, conference presentations, or college-related displays.
Authorized
users:**
CALS majors or non-CALS majors enrolled in CALS classes. Student
status will be verified prior to any poster print.
Authorized use:
Posters for class projects, research symposia, or other academic
requirements.
Maximum
application size:
There is no set maximum other than one side is limited to 36 inches. It is
not necessary to adjust for a margin, however do not allow text boxes or
graphics to "hang" over the edge of the slide.
Cost:
Free to authorized student users, up to a maximum of 2 drafts and one final
copy for each poster sheet; after the free allotment is used up, students must
use a fee-based printer (e.g. University Graphics) at their own expense. If
more than one poster needs to be printed then another appointment must be
scheduled via an appointment request form. An appointment is required for
each poster to be printed:
http://www.cals.ncsu.edu/computing/sop/classrooms/printreqform.html
Times available:
By appointment Monday-Friday between 8:00 a.m. and 5:00 p.m. and in
accordance with 1400 Williams hours of operation. Staff will respond
within 24 hours and appointments will usually be scheduled within 72
hours. Contact information will be posted in the CALS student computing
labs. We cannot guarantee that we will be able to fulfill last minute or next
day request. We do not allow walk-up/same-day printing requests. Late
appearances of at least (but not limited to) 15 minutes will be construed as a
voluntary cancellation of the appointment and another one will have to be
scheduled.
12
Basic procedure:
Students should plan their posters carefully; keeping in mind that software
available on CALS student lab facilities (Word XP, PowerPoint XP or
Photoshop 7.0) must be used. Also, posters should be saved to a PC
formatted disk, we cannot retrieve them from your K: drive or email.
Staff cannot provide design help nor will any corrections or
modifications, including spelling changes, be made during the
appointment period. If corrections are needed prior to printing the
final version, another appointment will be necessary. Please review
posters carefully before your appointment time.
Image
Recommendations
Scanning resolution should be between 75 and 150 dpi. Lower resolutions
will result in poor quality images. Higher resolutions do produce noticeably
better images but do cause the file to be large and hard to manage causing
the poster to be printed with some distortion/errors.
Disclaimer
CAAT reserves the right to refuse printer services based on content,
quality, application used, file size or other criteria not in accordance with
this policy.
** Faculty should use departmental printers or other fee-based printers whenever possible. For
emergency printing needs, please complete an Appointment Request Form. There will be a
charge for faculty use. A completed IDT must be submitted at the time of the print. 5-Accounts
(Federal Funds) cannot be used for this purpose.
Faculty costs per poster:
Heavy Coated Paper
Premium High Gloass
Draft
$10.00
$15.00
Final
$15.00
$25.00
An IDT including OUC, FAS, Bookkeeper’s name and phone number must be submitted at the
time of service.
For more information on large format poster printing, visit:
http://www.cals.ncsu.edu/computing/sop/classrooms/LF_Printer.html

X. Web and Network Access, Web Browsing
Students can access the Web in most public computing labs on campus using university-owned
equipment. Access is also available to students in non-lab locations on their own computing
equipment via wired nomadic computing, via wireless hotspots, and via campus networks in
campus housing (i.e., ResNet).
Wired Nomadic Computing
Students can access open Internet ports and power connections in several locations on campus to
gain Web and campus network access on their own computers, or on laptops available for checkout/loan. Details for setting up one's computer to access the Web and campus network in these
locations can be found online:
Nomadic Computing in the D.H. Hill Library
http://www.lib.ncsu.edu/ads/nomadic.html
Libraries Laptop Lending Service
http://www.lib.ncsu.edu/ads/laptop.html
Wireless Access to the Web
Students can access online resources and the Web wirelessly in
various buildings and open spaces on campus. Locations with
wireless access include:
http://www.ncstate.net/wireless/docs/map.html
The student's laptop or PDA/handheld must have a wireless card
compatible with the 802.11b wireless standard, and this card must
be configured to receive "ncsu" signals. See your laptop or
handheld documentation for information on configuring the device
for network access. After configured, open a Web browser on your
device and point to:
http://nomad.ncsu.edu/login.pl
For wireless configuration settings and other information about wireless on campus, visit the
following Web sites:
http://www.ncsu.edu/it/essentials/connections_labs/wireless.html
http://www.ncstate.net/wireless/
Campus Housing Access to the Web (ResNet)
If you have a computer of your own and live in campus housing that has been “wired,” you can
achieve a full Ethernet connection to the campus network, which will give you access to e-mail,
14
the World Wide Web, your Unity account, and much more. For details on network access from
specific campus housing locations, visit:
http://www.ncsu.edu/resnet/pages/general_info/who.php
New Users: Browsing the Web
The best way for new users to learn Web browsing is to find a computer, open a Web browser
(e.g., Internet Explorer), and begin to look for information. At least three procedures are
available for selecting and viewing new information:
1. Click links on any Web page to go to new pages (Use the Back and Forward buttons to
easily move between pages that you have just visited).
2. Click in the window that displays the address of the current Web page and type the URL
(Web address) of the page that you want to connect to (note that you can cut and paste
into this window). Often your instructor will provide you with URLs related to your
course work, or you will learn about interesting URL’s from publications or from friends.
3. Search the Web by using one of many Web search engines (e.g., www.google.com). Use
the search button and type in words or phrases to receive pages that contain lists of Web
links that may meet your search interests--great for research!
Hints for Excellence: Learn how to print Web pages, and how to cut and paste information (text
or images) from Web pages into your documents and e-mail messages. This will be very useful
for research, reports, etc. Take time to become familiar with Web sites on campus--you will find
a wealth of useful information! If you’re looking for part-time opportunities, consider learning to
create Web pages and work with multimedia--you could even place your resume on-line!
15
XI. Network Resources
Once you are on the NC State network and have obtained your Unity ID and password, what
resources can be accessed besides the general World Wide Web? The following resources
include tools available to the general student body at NC State (TRACS LINK, Oracle Calendar),
as well as tools tied to specific courses that must be activated by an instructor before the student
will be able to access them (WolfWare, WebCT, WebAssign).
TRACS LINK
TRACS LINK provides student access to registration and other student information over the
Web, including:
•

For more information, visit: http://www.ncsu.edu/reg_records/tracs.html
Oracle Calendar
The Oracle Calendar is a networked calendar available to all faculty, staff, and students at NC
State, beginning spring semester 2005. It can be used to post personal appointments, and for
others to send you appointments which you can accept (I’ll be there) or reject (I’m busy). Unless
a calendar is marked “private” you will be able to check others’ calendars to see when they are
available for appointments/meetings. However, you will only be able to see when they are
scheduled, not what they are scheduled to do or where they are scheduled to be. Eventually, there
will be “subscribable” calendars, so you can populate your personal calendar with specific dates
(student center movie schedule, football/basketball schedules, club schedules, etc.). Your
calendar dates will reside on a remote server and can be retrieved via a Web interface or desktop
client; you can also hot synch your desktop client with a handheld to move your calendar dates
to/from a PDA/handheld device. For more information, visit:
http://brickyard.ncsu.edu/
16
Students should be aware that some faculty use an online learning management system
developed at NC State to place course materials online--WolfWare. WolfWare may be thought
of as file space or “lockers” for faculty and instructors teaching courses at NC State. Through
WolfWare, you may access course syllabi, course handouts, post messages to discussion boards,
and submit assignments to your instructors. For more information, visit:
http://wolfware.ncsu.edu/help/
WebCT is also a learning management system used by faculty at NC State to deliver course
materials and/or teach courses online; it was developed in Canada and is widely used in many
universities around the world. Through WebCT, you may also access course syllabi and files,
participate in discussions, and upload assignments and work. WebCT has added features not
found in WolfWare. For more information about this tool, visit:
http://webct.ncsu.edu/
WebAssign
WebAssign is another tool that may be used in
courses taken at NC State. WebAssign allows
students to submit homework and participate in
tests and quizzes online. For more information,
visit: http://webassign.ncsu.edu/
