CPT Jobs Board

Over the years we have tried a number of different open source and “for fee” solutions for the CPT Jobs Board on beausanders.org (now cptjobs.greenvilletech.us). Eventually we decided to develop our own web app for the CPT Jobs Board. The latest version of our CPT Jobs Board was launched in January 2016. Since then several new features have been added. If you have not visited our CPT Jobs Board lately, please check it out. Several local companies and recruiting agencies have already started posting their job openings for our students via the Jobs Board. Anyone can post a job to the Jobs Board. If you know of any employment opportunities that would be of interest to our CPT Department students or alumni, please visit our Jobs Board and click on Post Job on the Jobs Board for instructions. We added automatic email notifications. Click on Subscribe in the Jobs Board menu and enter your name and email address(es). You will receive an email within one day of new job listings being posted on our Jobs Board. Please help us promote our CPT Jobs Board. Tell your HR department and hiring authorities about this free service. We have around 500 students in our programs at anytime. We want to help them all find good jobs in IT in our area.

Practice Linux with PuTTY

You can use your instructor’s server linux1.beausanders.org to practice your linux commands, without having linux installed on your computer. I setup a user account for this class with the following credentials:

Server: linux1.beausanders.org

Username: ist190student

Password: first&ten

Install the terminal program putty.exe on your Windows desktop:

Click this link to download and install putty.exe

Once you have putty.exe installed on your Windows computer, use port 22 to connect to the sshd server on linux1. You will NOT be able to use any root/administrative commands, but you will be able use any commands that a standard user can.

Please remember that the ist190student user account is purged every two hours. If you are logged in when the purge script runs, you will be kicked out and you will have to log back in. Any files saved to this account will be deleted each time the ist190 student account is purged.

Let me know if you have any questions at beau@beausanders.org.
