Your user account on the UH CS server

Hostname: program.cs.uh.edu
You can ssh to this machine from any OS client. It has gcc version 4.8.3 and runs Redhat Enterprise Linux 7.1.
The username is your full lastname (no spaces) followed by the first letter of your first name (all in lower case). For instance, John Doe will have doej as his username.
Your password is your full 7-digit Peoplesoft ID followed the first letter of your last name and the first letter of your first name. For instance, John Doe with the Peoplesoft ID of 1234567 will have 1234567DJ as his password.
You can optionally change the password using the passwd command later.
