Hello Altshuler: Complete, helpful details related to what Duncan Murdoch points out below are in the R Installation and Administration manual. If you wish to build and use R without "admin access" in a "Unix-alike", see chapter 2. (Can't tell from your message except for your message of shell and PuTTY.)
I am able for example to use R on a orphan Linux machine at work where I have no influence on configuration: I just built R from source in my home directory as the manual instructs, and then set an alias in my .bash_profile file like: alias R='/home/bpikouni/downloads/R-2.2.1/bin/R' Works like a charm thru SSH PuTTY (Windows) with X11 forwarding and a local Cygwin X-server installed for graphical devices. Hope that helps, Bill ------------------------------- Bill Pikounis, PhD Nonclinical Statistics Centocor, Inc. > -----Original Message----- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Duncan Murdoch > Sent: Sunday, February 12, 2006 4:26 PM > To: Altshuler Eugeny > Cc: [email protected] > Subject: Re: [R] remote access > > > On 2/12/2006 4:07 PM, Altshuler Eugeny wrote: > > Hello! > > > > I have such trouble: I like R, but often I don't have administrator > > permissions to install R on some (not mine) computers. > > Current versions of R don't need admin access to install. > Just change > the default directory to one where you have write permission. > > Duncan Murdoch > > > > > Could you give me shell on any server with R installed in > order to apply > > R without installing it (simply with PuTTY). > > > > Great thanks! > > ______________________________________________ > [email protected] mailing list > https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help > PLEASE do read the posting guide! > http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html > ______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide! http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html
