Unix: OIT Unix server specifications and licensed software locations
Solution:
Current software on the Arizonas can be found as part of the Princeton Software
Repository, /usr/psr, and the operating system itself. Your environment will
by default include paths to the locations of the software. If you would like
to have additional software added to /usr/psr, please click on the "Sponsor
Package" link at
psr.princeton.edu/public.
Arizona users connecting for the first time to yuma/phoenix will see a security message regarding the key fingerprint. This does not indicate a security problem, but is due to the changing of the ssh keys on the Arizonas. For more information see Solution 9703.
If you would like to use scientific, math, and engineering software on the Arizona systems, you need to register for the 64-bit computing services (the servers named Tombstone and Sixtyfour); please see kb.princeton.edu/9682 for more information. The list of licensed software can be found in the table below.
An error message like "cannot execute binary file" will print out if you try to run a Solaris program on Linux. You need to use the 64-bit Solaris server Tombstone unless you have access to the source code for your software and wish to recompile it for Linux.
