The Chemistry Department has licensed various various software applications and has made them available in the Public Computing Lab for students and staff to use. This software is now available for Iowa State University students and Chemistry Department staff to use at locations other than the Public computing lab. You will be able to logon to the Software Server and run the licensed software from your office, dorm room, home or any other location which allows you network access.
This service is available for all Iowa State University students and all Chemistry Department faculty and staff. The list of users is obtained automatically from the official University lists of declared majors and from the list of department affiliation for staff members. If you believe you should have access to this server but are not allowed to logon send email to mcurie@iastate.edu.
You will lose access automatically when you no longer belong to one of the groups that give you access to the server. For Iowa State students this would be as a result of graduation or withdrawing from Iowa State. Your access will actually end when the group membership files are automatically updated. It is your responsibility to manage your files so they are stored in locations that you will have access to after your server access ends. Cleanup processes will automatically remove directories for users who no longer have access to the server.
The following software is currently available on this server.
If you have a request for software that would be useful to Chemistry students, please send it to mcurie@iastate.edu. As student computer fees are used to fund a significant portion of the software on this server, requests from students are particularly encouraged.
