Saving Your Work
All lab computers are set to update their software every night to match the master image. This means any new files created during the day will be wiped out. All important files created should be backed up by using sftp to store the files in your serer home directory. Files can also be backed up to a floppy disk, zip disk, or burned to a CD (if available).
