I coordinate Zephyr for the College of Engineering, as have been a principal
proponent for campus-wide Zephyr. The Math and Computer Science departments
have their seperate realms. I am a CS graduate student.
Here's a copy of my .zephyr.subs:
message,food,*
message,food,bcs@eng.ufl.edu
message,frisbee,*
message,frisbee,bcs@eng.ufl.edu
We use these subscriptions for campus-wide "rendevous" for food, frisbee,
online games (dtrek), etc.
And our default.subscriptions file:
operations,ufl.edu,*
operations,ufl.edu,%me%
operations,eng.ufl.edu,*
operations,eng.ufl.edu,%me%
message,personal,%me%
Notice we have operations instances for the entire UF campus (ufl.edu) as
well as for our local realm (eng.ufl.edu).
I have written a shutdown that uses Zephyr instead of wall for remote file
system clients, and re-wrote the zinit program for NFS environments. Two
two programs sort of go hand-in-hand. Let me know if you are interested;
I can send the source as long as you retain the original authorship.
We are currently evaluating the integration of Hesiod and Kerberos.
Cheers.
