We have computing licenses for Mathematica available within the theory group.
Desktops and machines in the SLAC network can use our license server.
A limited amount of individual licenses is available for computers / laptops outside the SLAC network.
Alex (alexfr@slac.stanford.edu) is maintaining our Mathematica licenses.
Mathematica for Windows, Linux and MacOS can be downloaded from our theory machines and is located at
/u2/mathematica_files/
If you are activating Mathematica via a GUI, select network activation and choose
epp-theory02.slac.stanford.edu
as the license server.
For this to work, you need to be inside the SLAC network and can only use Mathematica as long as you stay in the network as the license server is not reachable from the outside.
If you activate Mathematica from command line add the following line to the file ".Mathematica/Licensing/mathpass" in your home directory.
!epp-theory02.slac.stanford.edu
There are three options to use Mathematica if you are outside the SLAC network:
ssh -L 16286:127.0.0.1:16286 your-slac-username@slacEPP2
This In order for this to work you need to have configured ssh to use one of the gateway machines as a proxyJump to epp-theory02. Instructions on how to setup a proxyJump can be foundĀ
