Exported material available via anonymous FTP from ftp.ccs.neu.edu. We also provide a Web Gateway to our FTP server.
A set of small documents designed to help with specific tasks like creating a web page here at CCIS, connecting securely to our environment, and retrieving deleted files.
This section describes some of the software we've developed locally, as well as some of the cool software we've installed. There are also a few pointers to useful reference materials.
This section provides a collection of help and reference documents that we have spun together from various parts of the net. The information in here ranges from general UNIX introductions to Internet tutorials and to programming languages. We found these documents useful, and decided to `mirror' them locally to make them generally available to all. We hope you find them useful.
