     41  In order to use the basic functionality of the GeniDesktop, it is required to install and configure some slice, sliver and user information onto the Global Node that you had added to your slice when it was created. The following things happen during this operation
     42    * Software like webserver, MySQL Server,etc are installed on the Global Node.
     43    * SSH keys are generated dynamically on the Global Node. The public key is then installed on all the other nodes in your slice.
     44    * A software called [https://code.google.com/p/shellinabox/ Shellinabox] is installed on the Global Node and is used as a proxy to provide web-based SSH to all experimental nodes in your slice.
     45    * Authentication/Authorization setup is performed in order to access the the above mentioned services.

     47=== what does this do for my slice ? ===
     48  As you will see later in this session, you will now be able to use a web-console based terminal to connect to your experimental nodes just by clicking on a node in the topology diagram and a few clicks on a button. You will also be able to copy files to your nodes and the ability to run commands on your nodes simultaneouly using the web based tools provided by the GeniDesktop.

    4250Under the header "Next Action" there will be a button that will perform the next logical step for the slice. Once the resources are allocated, you can initialize the slice. The Next Action button will say "Initialize". Click it to start the Genidesktop Initialization process for that slice
