     11. GENI Portal Account Instructions
     2
     3These instructions are to test if you are able to log into the GENI Portal using the username and password you use at your home institution, and, in the event that fails, to help you request a GENI account.  (Note: GENI never sees your home institution username and password. For more information on how this works, see http://www.incommon.org/federation/basics.html.)
     4Go to https://portal.geni.net and click the big orange "Use GENI" button.
     5On the institution chooser page, select your home institution. The text entry field will auto-complete institutions if you type in a few characters. Or you can choose the "Show a list of organizations" option and find your institution in the drop down box.
     6IF your institution does not appear here, STOP and fill out this form: https://shib-idp.geni.net/geni/request.html.
     7Click "Continue". You should be redirected to your home institution's login page.
     8Type in your usual home institution Username and Password. Again, note this information is not sent to GENI.
     9You should be redirected to a GENI agreement page.
     10IF this does not happen, STOP and fill out this form: https://shib-idp.geni.net/geni/request.html.
     11On the GENI agreement page, check the two boxes that indicate you agree to all policies and to let the portal work on your behalf. Then "submit" the page.  Congratulations, you're done!  You should now be at the portal home page and you are ready for the GENI tutorial.
     122. Computer Requirements
     13
     14    Verify your laptop/desktop meets these minimum requirements:
     15Runs a relatively recent version of Mac OS X, Windows or Linux.
     162 GB of memory
     17A modern processor, at least dual core and >1.5 GHz, (no Intel Atom, no netbooks, no tablets)
     18A good connection to the Internet
     19If you have a choice, MacOS/Linux machines are preferred as they have built-in ssh tools.
     20
     21If you have a webcam please use it at the tutorial---web-based tutorials are much less impersonal if we can see your faces!
     223. Install GENI Tools
     23
     243.1 Install Browsers
     25
     26If not already installed on your machine, please install these browsers:
     27Chrome: Google Chrome
     28Firefox: Firefox.
     293.2 SSH Client
     30
     31    Mac OS X/Linux
     32Mac OS X and Linux come with an ssh client you can run from a Terminal window. You do not need to install anything. Proceed to the "Test SSH with keys" section below.
     33
     34    Windows
     35Recommended -  Install Putty, a free SSH client for Windows:
     36
     37http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/download.html
     38Alternative - Install FireSSH, a Firefox ssh plugin:
     39
     40Install the plugin from FireSSH
     413.3 Test SSH with keys
     42Attached is a copy of an SSH private key. Follow the instructions below which apply to your Operating System/Tool.  (PuTTY users should use the key file with PUTTY in it's name)
     43
     44    Mac OS X/Linux
     45Save the NOT_PUTTY version of the private key attached to this message on your computer. 
     46Open a terminal
     47Ensure that your private key has the right permissions by typing :
     48chmod 700 <private_key_file>
     49Run ssh by typing:
     50ssh -i <private key location> sshtest@pc3.geni.uchicago.edu -p 32826
     515.  Enter the passphrase (v3rify) when prompted. Note: If you are prompted for a password then something went wrong. Make sure that all the information is correct.
     52
     53If you see the prompt sshtest@test:~$ you are all set!
     54
     55
     56    Windows PUTTY
     57You will use the PUTTY version of the private key attached to this message.  Save the key on your computer. (It was converted from the standard fromat using the puttygen program. For more information look here)
     58Run PuTTY.
