MF CU- http://eduroam.lf3.cuni.cz• WHAT IS EDUROAMThe basic thought behind EDUROAM is to allow the students andacademic employees to hook up their equipment (laptop, PDA) tothe network even at another academic institution (other universitiesin CR, VFN etc.), without having to register or receive accessinformation. Connecting to the network simply requires a usernameand password used at the home institution.It is based on the wireless network on the basis of IEEE802.11 (Wi-Fi)technology.• THE POSSIBILITIES WITH EDUROAMEDUROAM offers our faculty a wider and qualitative Wi-Fi signal (at thistime all our publicly accessible areas of the dean’s office including thefoyer, lecture halls, study areas, area on the 6 th floor and most of the otherareas). Also (due to the used technology) an increase in data access of thenetwork to a theoretical maximal boundary of 54Mbit/s has beenestablished. The system of first access to the home network has beensubstantially simplified (see part „how to sign up“).Another important advantage for all members of the academic community is the usage of the transparentnetwork at other connected institutions (currently over 40 other localities in the CR and hundreds of othersin Europe - viz. http://www.eduroam.cz a http://www.eduroam.org).Usage of the current wireless network (CU. 3 MF) will be terminated in the following weeks. I ask all usersto switch to EDUROAM.2

• HOW TO SIGN-UPThe new user from the academic community of the 3.MF CU must complete only one condition forreceiving access to the EDUROAM network- to own a valid CU pass (see http://www.cuni.cz/UK-1444.html) and have access to the CAS system (Central authentication service of CU -https://ldap.cuni.cz/). On the web pages of CAS (upon registration) it is necessary to set „password forweb access 802.1x“.This step will give you a username for access (in the form „number of individual“@cuni.cz) and passwordthat you have selected („number of individual“ can be found on the CU pass underneath your photograph).More detailed conditions for receiving a username and password along with a „step-by-step“ instructionsheet from Your Computer can be found at http://eduroam.lf3.cuni.cz.• REALISATION AND THANK YOUThe realisation and connection of the 3.MF CU to EDUROAM took about 8 months. During this time acomplete new segment of the ether network (for connecting individual access points) on all floors of thebuilding. A new room for the operation of the servers and the purchasing of new servers for necessaryservices (LDAP, Radius, DHCP, firewall) has also been established.A total of 5 various types of accessible points (AP) were made available until the best one that fulfilled allthe necessary conditions was chosen.At the dean’s office of the 3.MF CU, there are a total of 13 AP (from the 2 nd to the 6 th floor always two AP, onthe 1 st floor three AP).All of this could not be possible without the support given by the Ministry of Education, Youth and PhysicalEducation as part of the developmental project “A usage of contemporary IT methods and of the Internet inthe education and research at the 3.MF CU” that was received by the Department of medical biophysics andinformatics in the year 2006, realization could also not be possible without the support of CESNETsupporting the EDUROAM program in the CR and last but not least the realization could not have beencompleted without the help of all the employees of the maintenance and technical division. In this manner, Iwould like to thank the students and employees that participated from all the future satisfied users ofEDUROAM.MUDr. Tomáš Kostrhun, Department of Biophysics and Informaticstomas.kostrhun@lf3.cuni.czHISTORY NOTESMarch 2 nd , 1882 (125 years):Adalbert (Vojtěch) DUCHEK DIEDin Vienna, at the place of his final workplace, at the age of merely 57 and a quarter years. He spentmost of his life – his first 31 years – he spent in Prague: he was born as the son of the physician on December1 st , 1824, he completed secondary school and medicine at Prague’s University– graduated Med. Dr. 8. 9.1848 (dissertation Ueber die Wirbeltuberculose – one of the last Prague’s medical dissertation’s before theywere cancelled, Chir. Dr. 23. 12. 1848, mag. por. 1850. From October 1850, he was a secondary at theDepartment of Psychiatry; from November 1850 to September 1851 as a secondary at the general hospital;1851-1853 after PODLIPSKÝ as an assistant at the 2 nd medical clinic of prof. HAMERNÍK, who was (sameas Arnold PICK a half a century later) interested in DUCHEK’S study on the causes of paralytic stupidityUeber Blödsinn mit Paralyse; July 15 th , 1853 the professor’s board denied DUCHEK’S request on habilitation;later, when the head of the clinic didn’t receive professorship DUCHEK was used for various errands, thathe used to grow professionally: he worked as an assistant at medical chemistry and assistant atpathological anatomy (that he used in his study), in 1853-1854 he was a provisional assistant of the zoochemical department (he studied the effects of alcohol on animal organs) and in the summer semester of1854 as a provisional pro-sector at the Department of Pathological Anatomy; in November 1854 he wasagain an assistant at the 2 nd medical clinic, but he also applied in Štýrský Hradec (rectal medicine) and inPešti (general pathology and pharmacology), in 1855 he received KROMBHOLZ’S four month travelscholarship (600 gold pieces), but he denied it when at the same year he was made professor of the medicalclinic at the medical surgery training in Lvov; he continued from 1856-1858 in Heidelberg and 1858 hetransferred to Vienna: 1858-1871 professor of internal medicine at Josefin (he was the first in Vienna to takepart in the diagnostics of brain tumours) and 1871-1882 due to OPPOLZER’S proposal he became the3

eplacement for Josef ŠKODA at the 2 nd medical clinic. He was understood pathological anatomy andmedical chemistry excellently, a fantastic diagnostician, a careful therapeutic trying to find the commonground between nihilism and polypharmacy, a respected teacher. From Handbuch der speciellen Pathologieund Therapie he managed to finish only Krankheiten des Herzens, des Herzbeutels und der Arterien aKrankheiten des Larynx, der Trachea und Schilddrüse (Erlangen 1862). From the pre-vitamin era– his workScorbut in BILLROTH’S and PIŤH’S Handbuch der allgemeinen und speciellen Chirurgie 1, 2. Abt. A, Erlangen1876 held great value. In 1861-1870, he co-published Wiener medizinische Jahrbücher and Zeitschrift der k. k.Gesellschaft der Ärzte zu Wien. He had tuberculosis; He visited his residence at Předslav na Klatovsku to relaxfrom his exasperating work and to gather new strength. He died in Vienna (dg.: perikarditis acuta) and wasburied in Weidling. He left his fortune to Vienna’s and Prague’s University for scholarship purposes; at atime when the Czech university was right around the corner, he was preparing seriously to support thedevelopment of the Czech Academy but he didn’t survive to see the plan realized.Pavel Čech, Cabinet of the History of MedicineVITA NOSTRA SERVIS - Informational weekly magazine of Charles University in Prague – 3rd Faculty of Medicine.
