RB Scripts
This page should contain details of redbrick scripts.
RBquota
This is a python wrapper for quota. It is set to use quota with the -Q option,
so it won't print errors for servers without rpc.quotad
(usually the backup
machine). This should be in /srv/bin
, and gets executed from /etc/shell_cmd
on login as long as there is no $HOME/.hushlogin
Packaged as rbquota on packages.redbrick.dcu.ie
no(help|permwarn|forward)
Shell scripts for user dot-files.
Packaged as redbrick-noscripts on packages.redbrick.dcu.ie
Help
Another shell script, to be found in /srv/bin
. Expects helpfiles to be
available from /srv/help
. The help files are just plain text files that are
easily editable. These files should be editable by the helpdesk group.
Packaged as redbrick-help on packages.redbrick.dcu.ie
News/usenet
These setup dot-files for slrn if they don't already exist. Users that run slrn without ever running news will get horrible errors.
