Duane and Danelle,

MatLab 7.0.2 (Release 14, SP 2) is now installed on nanomia at 
the following location:

/usr/local/matlab7.0.2/

I decided to create an "aved" user for anyone to be able
to access the system (at this point only aved can run matlab).

The passwd for the account is aved.  (I decided to let you guys
make up a better one.).

If you prefer to give access to another user (other than aved) to 
use the system, go to the following file and changeout the name 
aved with that user:

/usr/local/matlab7.0.2/etc/MLM.opt

I did find that all of the symbolic links I set up for the RedHat
system to start matlab on boot did not work. I followed
the instructions.....  I will have to figure this one out later as I
am anxious to start my 4th of July weekend.

For the moment, the matlab server has been started on 
nanomia.  Should you need to restart the system and have
to restart the server, simply type the following (as the user AVED)
Do NOT do this as root:

$ /usr/local/matlab7.0.2/etc/lmstart

once the server has started, simply type the following to bring
up matlab (again, as aved or the user you specify in MLM.opt):

$ matlab

The beautiful MatLab graphic display seen locally on nanomia does
not view from my computer system, but I figure with a little tweaking
we can get it to show up on another system.  I do get the text
session though for now.

Let's talk more about setting this up further after the holiday.
Keep in mind that all of this information is in the Matlab install book
that shipped with the CDs.

Have a happy 4th weekend!

- Karen
