Fresno State Medallion
ITS Unix Systems Group


Group Background

Information Technology Services utilizes many Sun-based UNIX servers in order to provide reliable, 24 hour Internet and system infrastructure services to the campus.  In addition, we also provide enterprise services to CVIP--the university dial-up service provider.

Our services to the campus community include:

  • Faculty/staff, student, CVIP and State Center email services using Sun ONE Messaging Server,
  • Internet name services using Berkeley's Internet Name Daemon (BIND),
  • Usenet news services to CSUF and CVIP customers using Typhoon,
  • World-wide web proxy and filtering proxy using Sun ONE Proxy Server,
  • White pages and authentication LDAP directory servers using Sun ONE Directory Server,
  • Dialup and campus wireless authentication services using Cisco TACACS and Sun RADIUS,
  • Dynamic addressing capabilities provided by Internet Software Consortium (ISC) DHCP servers for campus and CVIP DSL customers.

At this time, our primary vendor for our Internet system infrastructure is Sun Microsystems.  We utilize Sun's Solaris 8 and 9 operating environments. Presently, there are approximately 31 Sun servers being used in our operation.  These servers are housed in our data center on campus at McKee Fisk.
