[Cs5500] Internet Ready

[Karl Lieberherr]

Hi Karan:

thank you for your detailed description.

I would like to have teams who don't have a CCIS account but maybe have
an expensive super computer participate in competitions. This will be much
more scalable when the work the avatars do is run on other computers than
CCIS machines.

Are we internet ready in this more general sense? I am afraid not. What is
the most effective way to get there?

> Step1: put the Genericscg file on any college server e.g
> tvtennis.ccis.neu.edu
>
> Step2: Run the admin on the college server from the command prompt i.e  >>
> bin$ java -cp .:demeterf.<hamcrest> acg/admin/Admin <password>

> Step3: Now that the Admin is running on the server, schedule an MMG

> Step4: The Players now register their avatars "which are copied onto any
> ccis server" and give execute from ssh cmd prompt
