HOWTO: Create a new course/modul in the Electures-Portal

Send an E-Mail to electures@informatik.uni-freiburg.de with the following details:

• Module (course) name as listed in the Vorlesungsverzeichnis : i.e. Algorithmentheorie , this will be used to synchronize the Electures-Portal with the Campusmanagement System (LSF).
• Semester: i.e. WS 2012/2013 or SS 2013 for the Semester (is probably current semester).
• Chair: i.e. Algorithmen & Datenstrukturen
• Name of the professors giving this course, i.e. Prof. Dr. Hans Zappe, Prof. Dr. Bernd Becker (give at least the name of the professor)
• Name of the directory on the server (under /scratch/lectures), i.e. Informatik/Algorithmentheorie or MST/FestKoerperPhysik or MST/AVT etc.
• Filesystem-Group putting the files in the eLectures-Portal
  i.e. group faw-pult-doz (not recommended) or for example ad-staff or avtstaff (own group, recommended)
  You will need to be a member of this group to upload files directly to the server; Explanation what the filesystem group is
  Ask your local administrator/technician for support with usergroups.
• Useraccount(s) of the user(s) creating the entries on the Electures-Portal (electures-portal-account). I.e. myelecturesaccount . More specifically we need
  • the login names (university accounts) of the Hiwis uploading the material (Modul administrator role)
  • the login name (university account) of a responsible member of the staff (Community owner role; which will for example be able to allow foreigners access to the module contents; this should usually be Postdoc or a group leader)

You can copy/paste the following snippet in your email, please make sure to include all values:

The Server to access the filesystem is canus.informatik.uni-freiburg.de . You should be able to mount this with the windows explorer as a Net-Drive: \\canus.informatik.uni-freiburg.de\lectures\ . If that's not possible with your local TF-Account, please contact your local system administrator.
