Bring-up plan for Algol

OUT OF DATE as of 2008-11-01.

2/4/2009: This is old stuff (old server, old setup). Move to trash? –James Fuller

The plan for making Algol the Arcy replacement:

1. Register system
2. Go through current Arcy accounts & purge inactive or old
3. Get LDAP set up to authenticate off of ITS servers
1. Set up accounts locally for all users on current Arcturus
4. Set up email list on lists.carleton.edu
5. Establish quotas for users (200 megs?)
6. Install software
1. IDL – new version
2. SFTP server
3. Mathematica
7. Figure out directory structure (how do users share data?)
8. Mount network drive script (HOME, COLLAB, COURSES)
9. Set up AMANDA with SDLT tape drive ::frown!::

Note: we are NOT setting up the mail server.
