Remote unix Learning Environment (RULE)
Introduction
The Remote Unix Learning Environment (RULE) provides a cost-effective
solution to teaching Unix in a Windows-centric network environment.
By making use of preexisting Windows PCs, RULE offers `hands-on' Unix
experience without the cost of dedicated Unix labs or the cost and
inconvenience of re-imaging entire labs of machines on a regular basis
Where did RULE come from?
The RULE system has been used at Swinburne University for teaching a
number of Unix subjects since semester 1, 2003.
Maximising Student Exposure to Unix Networking using FreeBSD Virtual Hosts
Describes the RULE system deployed at Swinburne University from both a
practical and technical perspective.
The Jail Host Toolkit (JHT) has been developed here
at Swinburne to make installation and maintenance of RULE systems easier.
The original version of the JHT will shortly be released under and open
source license for those interested in the bare-bones requirements in
configuring jailed hosts under FreeBSD.
The current version of JHT includes a significant number of improvements
to the original version, including a graphical administration application
JHT Administrator.
