FC-projekter med eksterne partnere English version Spørgsmål Sammen med nogle udenlandske kolleger arbejder jeg på et projekt. Jeg ved, at man andre steder har indrettet muligheden for en slags fælles virtuelt arbejdsrum;  dvs. at man kan arbejde ved hver sin computer, men at tingene bliver gemt på én maskine/server. Jeg vil altså spørge, om I kan indrette eller reservere disk-space for vores projekt, således at man har adgang til filerne via nettet (med password eller lignende). Svar Et sådant fælles, virtuelt arbejdsrum kan netop med stor fordel etableres i FirstClass. Man opretter blot en lukket konference, som kun spørgeren og de relevante samarbejdspartnere kan se og har adgang til. De projektdeltagere, der ikke har tilknytning til Det Humanistiske Fakultet, registreres med begrænsede rettigheder i fakultetets FirstClass system. Det vil sige, at de stort set ikke kan andet end at arbejde i den pågældende konference. Alle projektdeltagere kan tilgå konferencen via både FC-klienten og web-browser (se FC via browser ). Det vil sige, at de kan anvende klienten, hvis den er installeret på deres computer, og dermed opnå fuld funktionalitet i brugen af FirstClass; eller de kan anvende web-browseren, hvis klienten ikke lige er en mulighed. I den forbindelse gør det ingen forskel, om man har tilknytning til fakultetet eller er ekstern projektdeltager. NB: Det er set, at en ekstern bruger har haft problemer med at logge ind i FirstClass pga. en meget striks firewall på dennes arbejdsplads. I sådanne tilfælde må brugeren tale med sin lokale netværks- og sikkerhedsansvarlige for at få AU-HUM's FirstClass-server godkendt over for firewall'en. For oprettelse af konferencen: Kontakt instituttets/afdelingens FirstClass superbruger. For registrering af samarbejdspartnerne som brugere af fakultetets FirstClass-system: Kontakt Servicelinjen. FC Projects with External Partners Question Together with some foreign colleagues I'm working on a project. I know that , in other places, it is possible to have a sort of shared virtual work space -- i.e. project participants can work on each his or her computer, but the files are stored on one and the same server. Is it possible to make or reserve disk space for our project so that we all have access to the files via the Internet (password-controlled, or the like)? Answer This is exactly the kind of task which FirstClass is especially well suited for. All you have to do is create a closed conference which only you and your co-workers may access. Those project participants who are not affiliated with The Faculty of Arts are registered with limited rights in the faculty's FirstClass system. This means that they can do very little but work in the relevant conference. All project participants may access the conference via both the FC_Client and a web browser (see FC_via_Browser). That is, they can use the client if it's installed on their computer, thus gaining full functionality in their use of FirstClass, or they can use a web browser if they are, for some reason, barred from using the client. In this connection it makes no difference whether the user is affiliated with the faculty, or is an external project partner. NB! It has been seen that an external user has had troubles logging into FirstClass due to a very strict firewall in this person's company. In that case the user should contact his or her local network and security officer to have the faculty's FirstClass server approved to the firewall. For conference creation, contact your local FirstClass super user. For registration of project participants as users of the faculty's FirstClass system, contact Service-Hotline. 2006-11-06 | Karen Viberg, HUM-IT
