Computer facilities

DSV's computer facilities offer a variety of systems. We use different operating systems such as Microsoft Windows and Debian GNU/Linux. Access to the local area network and the Internet is available through all the personal computers in the computer rooms, as well as through wireless network for laptops. It is also possible to access DSV's Linux server through the Internet, using an SSH-client.

Current information about the computer facilities can be found in DSV's internal FirstClass conference system.
