Request an account on Scully.cas.muohio.edu, Entropy.muc.muohio.edu, or
even Dragon.ham.muohio.edu if you'd like more disk space. I know Scully
has a 1.2 gig drive 67% free (/home), Dragon has a 1.2 gig drive 46% free
(/home), and Entropy has a 500 meg hard drive 14% free. There's sure to
be other machines around, these are all Linux, and I don't know if any of
the other administrators have put in quotas or not but Dragon has a 200
megabyte quota (and someone hit it). I know of Titan.sas.muohio.edu as
another Linux machine, not sure if it's open though.
Machine: Hard drive Totals in 1,024 byte chunks.
Scully :/dev/sda2 1186179 371777 746528 33% /home

Although we do have quite a few less students...
