I have in the past not found the U. of Auckland IT people to be very 
helpful.  They don't like the fact that I am using my own laptop on 
which I have superuser privileges and am thus not under their complete 
control.  Also they are Windoze oriented, with Ubuntu insisted upon if 
one insists on running Linux.  Fedora is a no-no.
