CSC machine downtime on August 31

by Computer Science Club

Hello everyone, On Thursday August 31, between 7:00 PM and 9:00 PM EST, we will be upgrading corn-syrup and caffeine to Debian 12. This will require a reboot so these machines will be offline for a few minutes. To avoid disruption, please use a different machine during that time. The list of general-use machines is here: https://wiki.csclub.uwaterloo.ca/Machine_List A few other non-general use machines will also be rebooted, so some CSC services (e.g. mail, The Lounge) will also be down for a few minutes. If you have any questions or concerns, please email syscom(a)csclub.uwaterloo.ca. -- Max Erenberg Systems Committee Computer Science Club of the University of Waterloo

[Action required] Your CSC password may be compromised

by Computer Science Club

Hi, If you reused the same password for your Nexus/WatIAM/Quest/UWaterloo email account for your CSC account, please CHANGE YOUR CSC PASSWORD NOW. As you know, the University's Nexus/WatIAM passwords have been compromised. Although CSC accounts were not directly affected, if you reused any password for your CSC password, then it is now also compromised, and requires a password change. To reset your password, simply SSH into any CSC machine and run the `passwd` command. --- Best, Raymond Li | https://raymond.li CSC Systems Administrator

Sunsetting ZNC

by Computer Science Club

Hi all, Syscom is sunsetting ZNC in *one week* due to it no longer being maintained (the last commits were in 2020) and using JQuery v1, which is also no longer being maintained. znc.csclub.uwaterloo.ca will be taken down around November 7th, 2022. If you would like IRC message persistence, you can: - Use chat.csclub.uwaterloo.ca - Spawn a tmux/screen session on a general-use machine and use your preferred commandline IRC client in that session. Additionally, we would like to gauge interest in hosting a CSC Matrix server. Please fill out the following survey if you would like us to host one for CSC use: https://files.csclub.uwaterloo.ca/apps/forms/s/QgnX3r4De3Hg9KYZdsf6qJPA Please email syscom(a)csclub.uwaterloo.ca if you have any questions or concerns.
