== Submitting Your Assignment ==
Your professor will require you to submit this assignment in at least one of two ways:
# Demonstrate that the wiki is working.
# Use wget to harvest the wiki pages:
#* Make sure all of the <code><nowiki>http://</nowiki></code>-style links (for the wiki image, the link to diskfree.cfgi, and so forth) use the same hostname (don't use "localhost" for one and "f16host" for another, for example).
#* Issue the command: <code>wget -prk http://''hostname''/wiki</code> -- where ''hostname'' matches the hostname used in the <code><nowiki>http://</nowiki></code> links in your wiki pages.
#* Create a compressed tar file containing the results. (name the file ''learnid''-a2.tgz)
#* Check the tar file to see that it contains everything necessary to view your site (in particular, check that all needed image files are included). Do not edit the files in the tar archive -- if changes are needed, modify your wiki, and then repeat the <code>wget</code> and <code>tar</code> steps above.
#* Refer to your OPS235 instructor on the proceedure to submit the tar archive file.
