System Setup is available to owners of new workstations
who need to get their workstations up and running. It is
also available to owners of existing workstations who would
like to have their workstation completely reinstalled with
the most current version of the operating system.
System Setup service is arranged by appointment and includes:
- installation of operating system and relevant patches
- installation of a set of useful utilities (ph, a Web
browser, news, etc.)
- if desired, connection of workstation to the campus
network, assuming a network connection is available
- basic configuration and testing of sendmail
- assistance, as needed, for one week following the
installation to address any lingering setup problems
The purpose of System Setup is to provide a
functioning, usable workstation to the owner, with a week
of assistance to address any unforeseen startup problems.
After that period, the owner is responsible for the system
administration and maintenance of the workstation.

Group at cites-wsg@uiuc.edu.
