The new certificate also works for both of the commonly used names for our mail server: mail.ma.utexas.edu and math.utexas.edu .

If you ever encounter a warning message about untrusted or unverified security certificates when connecting to any of our services, please report it to us immediately.

One of the longstanding issues of LibreOffice(formerly OpenOffice.org) has been the equation editor, Math. TexMaths provides an equation editor to render your formulas written in LaTeX, the de facto standard in the scientific world. We hope that this will make LibreOffice on our workstations more approachable and useful.

We have deployed a WordPress network so that any member of our department can create a blog hosted by us.

All you have to do is log in, click “My Sites” at the top of the page, and finally click “Create a New Site”.

We request that you make your “Site Name” your user name to avoid name conflicts. You can of course make your “Site Title” whatever you like.

If you would like us to create a link to your blog in our Featured Blogs section on the blog network front page, please email gripe@math.utexas.edu .

There are so many improvements we make to our network. We need a way to let everyone who is interested know, but we know we can’t email everyone every time we do something. A blog is the perfect way for us to keep you informed at your leisure.

We will post here every time we deploy new software or services with some information on how to use them.  We will also post about planned maintenance and upgrades, but we will still send email about them, too.

Please check here often to stay up to date.
