This is a guide to the computer facilities, services and software available at the Math department of the University of Wisconsin. Most of the facilities are for department's the faculty, graduate students and staff. Those who do not have Math department accounts may use the two kiosk PCs located at the north B1 entrance (facing Ingraham hall) or the PCs located in the Kleene Math Library on the B2 level of Van Vleck hall.

More exact instructions for various IMAP clients can be found at [http://atrium.math.wisc.edu/computing/node/286]
The University runs Office 365, which has some spam controls built in.


If you have problems with this, please let us know:  staff@math.wisc.edu
There's two parts to the UW's spam control.


=== Dealing With Spam ===
* [https://kb.wisc.edu/page.php?id=53321 The Clutter Folder]
All Math Department mail accounts are configured with spam filtering. Messages that are clearly spam are automatically placed into a folder named 'spam' within your account. Messages placed in this folder are automatically deleted after 15 days. Users are encouraged to check their spam folder periodically to ensure that valid messages (known as ham) are not being sent to this folder.
* [https://kb.wisc.edu/page.php?id=45051 The Junk Mail folder]


You can teach the spam filter to be more efficient by following the directions on the page titled, [[Teaching the spam filter to be more efficient]].
Questions regarding these two methods should be directed to the DoIT Help Desk.  (264-HELP, 4357)


=== Vacation Mail ===
=== Vacation Mail ===
I. VACATION MAIL
Here is how to set up vacation notification for your math e-mail account
First, login to login.math.wisc.edu, then type
cd /auto/mail/YOURNAME
where YOURNAME is your username. Then add
the following line to the end of your .procmailrc file:
        :0 c
        | /usr/bin/vacation YOURNAME
where YOURNAME is your username. Edit/create the file
/auto/mail/YOURNAME/.vacation.msg
and put in there the message you want sent out while you are on vacation.
When you return from your vacation, just delete or comment out these lines
in your .procmailrc file by placing a # at the beginning of each line.


        :0 c
[https://kb.wisc.edu/page.php?id=32606 How to set up an auto-reply.]   
        | /usr/bin/vacation YOURNAME
 
This will allow our spam filters to process your incoming mail before
it gets to your mailbox and send your vacation message to only legitimate
addresses.


=== Forwarding your e-mail ===
=== Forwarding your e-mail ===
# We do not recommend forwarding all your math e-mail to a non-UW account
because of the following issues:


  1. possible violation of HIPAA rules on confidentiality of student records
[https://kb.wisc.edu/page.php?id=36539 Set/Manage a Forward on a NetID or Service Account]
    For example, if you forward your e-mail to your yahoo or gmail account,
    what guarantees do you have that this mail will not be indexed or otherwise
    disseminated to third parties?
  2. record retention issues related to student grades, etc.
However, if you are leaving the department,  you may want this information.
To forward filtered mail to a new address, you must first ssh to ''login.math.wisc.edu'' and
put lines like this in your /auto/mail/yourusername/.procmailrc file


        :0:
=== Leaving the Department ===
        !myaddress@somewhere.com
If you leave the Math Department, we will occasionally remove old accounts. In some cases, we can leave an account in place for


(of course you should replace the last line with your forwarding address).
#) users that are continuing to collaborate with faculty or staff for research
#) users that wish to continue to receive mail under their math account for a time.


to forward mail to another account while keeping a copy on our server,
While we can't guarantee infinite continuation of your email account because that is controlled by DoIT, we do have some methods at our command to make this more streamlined and less prone to being deactivated.
put a line like this in your /auto/mail/yourusername/.forward file


        \myusername, myaddress@somewhere.com
Generally, we remove accounts in October and March.  In most cases, you'll be told in an email that we intend on doing this.


=== Leaving the Department ===
If you feel you fall under either of the two case scenarios listed above, please email nagreen@math.wisc.edu.
If you leave the Math Department, your account will be deleted on September 1
after your departure. You will be notified about this on August 1. Here are
some things you may want to do to prepare for this


* Make a backup of your mail. This can be done by simply using the export feature of many mail programs. You can also [[use md2mb]].
=== E-mail Web Forms ===
* Start forwarding your e-mail to another account. To avoid getting spam, login to ''login.math.wisc.edu'' then follow these steps
    cd  /auto/mail/YOURUSERNAME
    edit .procmailrc with your favorite text editor (e.g. vim, emacs or pico). Insert these lines at the end of .procmailrc:
    :0:
    !myaddress@somewhere.com  (your forwarding address)
* Notify the computer staff if you would like forwarding to continue (up to a year after your departure) after your account is deleted. Give them your forwarding address.


=== E-mail Web Forms ===
If you need to have someone contact you via your website, it is better to use a Google Form.
You can create a web page on your web site to allow visitors to send you e-mail messages. With an e-mail form, you can allow users to register for conferences, send feedback, or answer an on-line poll. With additional tools supplied by the Math Department, you can import these messages into a spreadsheet or database.


*[[Creating an E-mail Form]]
https://kb.wisc.edu/104251 has information for creating a google form for use in a class, but you can adapt those instructions to create forms for almost any use case.  The responses are collected in Google, but you can set up a notification to send you an email when you receive a response.

During the summer of 2011, the department placed new Ricoh MPC 4501 printer/copier/scanners on floors 3-8. We will also switched from LPRNG to CUPS (the Common Unix Printing System) on our unix print servers.  What this means in practical terms is that users should become familiar with the System V lp commands. Previously, we used the Berkeley lpr command and some of these commands will still work.   
During the summer of 2020, new Ricoh IMC 6000 printers were placed on floors 3-8. We will also switched from LPRNG to CUPS (the Common Unix Printing System) on our unix print servers.   


Here are the '''page charges''' for printing and copying:
As of 2014, we stopped charging for overages in printing, but want people to consider carefully the costs of consumables and paper, and the impact on the climate from overuse of paper.  Please limit your use of our copiers to fewer than 250 pages a month.
 
  Printing:  250 free B&W pages per month, 4 cents per B&W page beyond the free allowance
            color pages will cost 20 cents per page with no free allowance.
  Copying:  200 free B&W pages per month, 4 cents per B&W page beyond the free allowance and 20 cents per color page with no free allowance.
  Scanning: There is no charge for scanning a document and e-mailing it to yourself. However,
            users should not scan copyrighted material.

Computer Help This is a guide to the computer facilities, services and software available at the Math department of the University of Wisconsin. Most of the facilities are for department's the faculty, graduate students and staff.

How to report an issue

Accounts and Policies

Account Set Up

Every person in the math department should be provided the opportunity to set up an account. That account is used for ...

  • computer login for math department computers
  • the ability to print to department printers
  • file storage on the department file server
  • access to math department servers for math software
  • the ability to login to various department web pages

This is different from your WiscMail account, which is used for

  • payroll
  • access to Canvas
  • access to UW system level IT resources such as Google Apps and UWNet wireless
  • your UW wiscmail account
  • login to various UW protected webpages hosted throughout the university
  • WiscVPN

Changing your Math Dept. Account Password

You can reset or change your account password any time:

  1. Go to https://web.math.wisc.edu/help/
  2. Click "Forgot Password"
  3. Click the link you will receive in your email.

Dealing With Spam

The University runs Office 365, which has some spam controls built in.

There's two parts to the UW's spam control.

Questions regarding these two methods should be directed to the DoIT Help Desk. (264-HELP, 4357)

Leaving the Department

If you leave the Math Department, we will occasionally remove old accounts. In some cases, we can leave an account in place for

  1. ) users that are continuing to collaborate with faculty or staff for research
  2. ) users that wish to continue to receive mail under their math account for a time.

While we can't guarantee infinite continuation of your email account because that is controlled by DoIT, we do have some methods at our command to make this more streamlined and less prone to being deactivated.

Generally, we remove accounts in October and March. In most cases, you'll be told in an email that we intend on doing this.

If you feel you fall under either of the two case scenarios listed above, please email nagreen@math.wisc.edu.

E-mail Web Forms

If you need to have someone contact you via your website, it is better to use a Google Form.

https://kb.wisc.edu/104251 has information for creating a google form for use in a class, but you can adapt those instructions to create forms for almost any use case. The responses are collected in Google, but you can set up a notification to send you an email when you receive a response.

Facilities

The facilities and equipment described below are for use by UW Math department faculty and graduate students on the UW Madison Campus and, preferably, in Van Vleck hall.

Mobile Computers and Projectors

Instructors may borrow laptop computers and projectors for demonstrations in any Van Vleck classroom. This equipment is kept in the AMP Library in Chamberlin Hall. You may check them out for up to 4 hours using your UW ID card. The math library also has an assortment of VGA and HDMI video cables which can be used to connect a PC, Macintosh computer or iPad to a projector. One of the projectors has built in speakers and a DVD player. It also has two microphones which can be connected to it. WARNING: the laptops available for check out are somewhat old and have only basic software (MS Office, TeX) on them. It is far better to use your own computer with the Department's projectors.

Ceiling Mounted Projectors

Classrooms B102, B107, B130, B215, B231 and B223, B239, the 901 seminar room, and the 911 Lounge each have a ceiling mounted projector. These projectors provide better displays than the mobile units. They can be used with a laptop computer. If you want to reserve one of these rooms, contact Sharon Paulson at paulson@math.wisc.edu. Keep in mind, though, that they're heavily booked and usually only available at the beginning or end of the day.

During the summer of 2020, new Ricoh IMC 6000 printers were placed on floors 3-8. We will also switched from LPRNG to CUPS (the Common Unix Printing System) on our unix print servers.

As of 2014, we stopped charging for overages in printing, but want people to consider carefully the costs of consumables and paper, and the impact on the climate from overuse of paper. Please limit your use of our copiers to fewer than 250 pages a month.

Supplies

If the printers run out of paper, please get more paper from the Copy Center on the second floor and place it in the printers. If you are unsure how to do this, ask the computer staff for assistance. For assistance with other problems (no toner, paper jams, etc. ) see Henry Mayes in 507 (for issues with the Ricoh copiers) and Sharon Paulson in 220 (for help with the printers in B127 and 101b).

See the cups guide for more detailed information on printing with cups. Click on the links below to learn how to use each function with the Ricoh copiers.

Ricoh Copier

Ricoh Copier FAQ

Only people with computer accounts in the UW Math Department will be allowed to use the Van Vleck Ricoh copiers. If you have a math account, you will receive a code to use for copying. These codes will be mailed out once a year in September after old accounts are deleted and new ones added. NOTE: if you forget your copier code, login to one of the math department linux PCs and type whatsmypin.

  • You copier code is only required for copying. Although the default display shows the copier login, you do not have to login in order to print or scan. Just push the buttons at the left to select the scanner or printer function.
  • Your code can be used on any of the copiers on floors 3-8. Do not use the copiers on the second floor. They are reserved for the administrative staff.

See Transferring Existing HTML Webpages to our servers

TeX/LaTeX

TeX and LaTeX are supported on the Math Department computers. To learn more about Typesetting with LaTeX we recommend the following site. Mediawiki has some support for LaTeX as the following example shows:

[math]\displaystyle{ \int_{[0, 1]^n} \left| \sum_{k = 1}^n \mathrm{e}^{2 \pi \mathrm{i} \, x_k} \right|^s \mathrm{d}\boldsymbol{x} }[/math]

Unix

Manipulating PDF files

The pdftk toolkit provides several useful tools for manipulating PDF files without using Adobe Acrobat Pro. Here are some examples:

1. This command will split off the first 15 pages of the file NSFProposal.pdf and save it to 'front.pdf'. Substituting 'cat 16-end' for 'cat 1-15' will save the second half of the file. 

 pdftk NSFProposal.pdf cat 1-15 output front.pdf

2. This command will merge two (or more) pdf files: 

 pdftk 1.pdf 2.pdf 3.pdf cat output 123.pdf

You can find more examples at pdftk-examples

Troubleshooting

Answers to some common computer problems

1. If you forgot the code you need to use the copiers, login to one of the department's linux PCs, open a terminal window and type 'whatsmypin'.

2. 'Macintosh users'. Sometimes the internet connection on a Mac will freeze. If this happens, click on the following"
