==Download 1.8GB XSCE 6.0 Release Candidate 1 for CentOS “7.1” (November 2015)==

===Follow instructions here: (Option 1.5)===
: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1Ez1H2LYrkqeXR_r5T93CMdmx9CeTJp_vC-IDBGam1Bc/edit#\
===Configuration===
*Connect a USBtoEthernet dongle (adapter) from the NUC to a live Ethernet cable (with
live Internet) so that during installation, software can download and update itself.
*Ideally, this live Ethernet wire leads from the dongle to a LAN port in the Netgear 3G
Modem/Router, whose WAN port (during this installation only!) leads to the Internet.
Later you’ll verify “ping 8.8.8.8” and “ping mit.edu” works thru this wire, as will be
discussed below.
*Connect an Ethernet cable and a powered TPLINK AP
:(LAN port, and tape over WAN port to make sure it’s never used)
to the NUC’s Ethernet port (its green link lights should light).
== Install onto Intel NUC==
* Write to a USB stick with dd or gnome-disks restore
* Windows users can use
http://sourceforge.net/projects/win32diskimager
==Boot NUC with USB stick inserted, using F10 is necessary.==
*Type “erase” when requested
*Watch for “done!” about 510 min later; ignore “I/O error”.
*Run “reboot”
: Optionally Disable all USB booting in BIOS: F2 on Boot > Boot Configuration >
Boot Devices > USB
: Likewise this should already be disabled: Boot > Boot Configuration > UEFI Boot > Boot USB Devices First
Login to your new server as: root / centos, then change both passwords:
passwd (changes root password)
passwd xsceadmin (has sudo powers, careful!)
*Verify that you have internet connection with “ping yahoo.com”
:Ensure both your networking connections are live and connected in their final position.
Get the most recent version of the XSCE playbook
“cd /opt/schoolserver/xsce”
“git pull origin master
==Install the software that lets you access XSCE from a client browser ==
./installconsole” (fixes LAN; no need to “./runtags network”)
reboot`
*Test client machines can reach
http://schoolserver.lan
or
http://172.18.96.1
*Finally, if you have no downstream WiFi AP, try
http://localhost
from a browser on the server itself, and also try
http://localhost/admin
with username “xsce-admin”
and you the password you set above.
*Alternate:
Log into the command console (click on “Admin Console” link, user: xsce-admin
pwd:g0adm1n)
*Select the services you want to install on the Configureservices enabled.
:Save configuration (green button)
:Install Configured options (red button)
:The teamviewer service will automatically install a graphical environment
===Launch TeamViewer from topleft "Applications Menu" > Internet > TeamViewer 10 ===
:Configure “Setup unattended access...” under TeamViewer’s Connection menu If You Dare.
:The openvpn will allow remote diagnosis and support
Install your favorite text editor. For example, run:
yum install emacs ●
*Install your favorite browser IF YOU UNDERSTAND ITS INHERENT RISKS TO
DESTROYING YOUR SERVER
==Install Mate-Desktop==
