Hi.
I am trying to set up a sage server for my students' use. Several
previous posts I've seen seem to suggest:
1. Create an account, say "server", in the machine I'm running sage
notebook. Create another (more more) accounts, say "worker", (or
"worker1", "worker2", etc,.).
2. Set up ssh keys so that "server" can ssh in to "worker" without
password.
3. Run an instance of notebook from the account "server", but let the
"worker" account run the worksheet process by using the 'server_pool'
option.
4. Don't forget to run the server securely by choosing the option
'secure=True'.
I want to make sure that I get these steps right and these
recommendations are still good.
I am not so well versed in Linux, so, I will probably need help from
my local IT people to carry out these steps, but, before I contact
him, I wanted to make sure that the above steps are roughly what need
to be done.
I have sage installed in a virtual machine (open SUSE), and I don't
plan to do anything else in that machine other than running sage for
my students. Also, I will keep the account creation off
('accounts=False'), except for one day I take my students to our
computer lab when they create their accounts. However, we opened
several ports of the machine to the outside, so that people with
accounts can log in to use their notebooks from off campus (mostly for
me and a few off campus students).
Please comment if these sound like a reasonable way to run sage for my
situation. Thanks.
