Workstation configuration

Network configuration

You should get a static IP from the system administrator. Your hostname will be the name of a famous scientist and the domain is iridia.ulb.ac.be. Other relevant addresses are:

Description	IP address
Gateway	164.15.10.254
DNS1	134.184.250.7
DNS2	134.184.15.13

You might also need to add the following data, although they are normally configured automatically:

Description	Value
Network	164.15.10.0
Netmask	255.255.255.0
Broadcast	164.15.10.255

Printer configuration

Name	URL	Model	Location

Meucci	meucci.ulb.ac.be	Ricoh Aficio 1290	-

The IRIDIA and the ULB network

The IRIDIA system administrator can create an account on the local subnet for you, however, if you want to have access to some of the computer services of the university, you'll need an account on the university network as well. Ask the secretary for the forms and the process.

Mail configuration

Assuming that you have an account on both the local and the university network the mail settings are as follows:

Service	URL
SMTP	smtp.ulb.ac.be
Iridia POP	iridia.ulb.ac.be
Iridia IMAP	iridia.ulb.ac.be
ULB POP	pop.ulb.ac.be

The SMTP server does not require authentication, while both POP servers require secure connections (SSL).

There are also web interfaces available to read the email if you can not connect to the above servers via POP or IMAP:

SERVER	URL
ULB	https://wwwdev.ulb.ac.be/webmail2/webmail.php
IRIDIA	https://iridia.ulb.ac.be/squirrelmail/
