Student Account Home Directory

The student user's home directory is wiped at logout. The last 10 directories are archived locally on each machine at /opt/student_homes/<YYYYMMDD_HH-MM-SS>.tar.gz. Faculty can extract these archives by running tar -xzvf <archive>. Files can be copied to /tmp where students should be able to access them. You can also contact cs-sysadmin@jmu.edu for assistance. Please provide the hostname and approximate timestamp that you need recovered.
