Q: I'm not using an LWP, but I want/need software X (e.g. MatLab).

A: Use the LWP.

=== Alternative ===
Some software that is available on the LWP but not on Linux in general comes from the NFS share /opt/netapps that we offer.
You can create the directory /opt/netapps on your own PC and put this line in /etc/fstab:

129.125.36.111:/netapps /opt/netapps nfs4 defaults,ro,async,rsize=32768,wsize=32768,clientaddr=129.125.14.122 0 0

Then mount it (sudo mount -a), and add /opt/netapps/bin to your path.

Now you can use the software (type 'matlab' in a shell).

If you want to access the software offline, copy it to your own /opt/netapps instead of mounting. You can also do this for performance reasons (speed), although the gain is often negligible.

=== Licenses ===
Licensed software uses online license management servers. If you take the software outside of the RuG network (e.g. on a laptop), you 'll have to arrange for a personal license. You 've reached the edge of our service.
