RBG Services

Access

Students participating in courses held by the Instituts für Informatik or the CIS can apply for an account which enables them to use the computer workstations and services of the RBG. Additional information can be found here.

Computer Workstations

We run computer pools at three locations (Oettingenstr., Amalienstr., Theresenstr.). All pools are practically identical with small differences in the amount of workstations available and the power of said workstations. Also note our room information

Remote

Additionally we have about 20 remote machines which are accessible via Secure Shell (ssh) and Remote Desktop (RDP). These computers are identical in configuration to our normal Workstations. Please refrain from running resource-intensive compute tasks on these machines because serveral users will typically be using any give machine at the same time. Additional information concerning access via ssh can be found here, for RDP look here.

Chat (zulip)

Every member of the institute (students and faculty) can use the Zulip based chat service we host. The Rules for using the service are currently rather lax. Aside from a rule on how to name streams and restrictions on inviting external users everybody can use all of Zulips capabilities freely. Additional information and requirements can be found here.

Voip (mumble)

Using Mumble the institute provides a pure VOIP Chat server. Anybody can connect to the server without prior registration. But channel creation, changing channels and speaking are all resticted. To speak with someone being pulled to a normal channel by another user is sufficient. The other permissions can be obtained through registration by the admins (Mail to RBG). Mumble Download
