| | 7 | Some of the tutorials will require you have a laptop that has: |
| | 8 | 1. An ssh client ([#a2.SSHClient Instructions]) |
| | 9 | 1. Chrome and Firefox browsers ([#a3.InstallChromeandFirefoxbrowsers Instructions]) |
| | 10 | |
| | 11 | |
| | 12 | == 1. SSH Client == |
| | 13 | |
| | 14 | === Mac OS X/Linux === |
| | 15 | Mac 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 [#TestSSHwithkeys Test SSH with Keys] section below. |
| | 16 | |
| | 17 | === Windows === |
| | 18 | '''Recommended''' Install Putty, a free SSH client for Windows: |
| | 19 | * http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/download.html |
| | 20 | |
| | 21 | An alternative is FireSSH, a Firefox ssh plugin: |
| | 22 | * Install the plugin from [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/firessh/ FireSSH] [[BR]] |
| | 23 | |
| | 24 | |
| | 25 | === Test SSH with keys === |
| | 26 | You should have received a copy of an SSH private key by email. (PuTTY users should use the key file with `PuTTY` in it's name.) |
| | 27 | |
| | 28 | To test your setup you will need this information: |
| | 29 | * `username`: sshtest |
| | 30 | * `hostname`: pc3.geni.uchicago.edu |
| | 31 | * `port`: 32826 |
| | 32 | * passphrase for private key: v3rify |
| | 33 | |
| | 34 | In the instructions below, skip the step about downloading a private key and just use the key provided though email. [[BR]] |
| | 35 | ''' Mac OS X/Linux/Cygwin ''': Follow [wiki:HowTo/LoginToNodes#LinuxMacOSWindowsCygwin these instructions]. If you see the prompt `sshtest@sshtestvm:~$ ` you are all set! [[BR]] |
| | 36 | ''' Windows ''': Follow [wiki:HowTo/LoginToNodes#WindowsPuTTYFireSSHBitViseGitBash these instructions]. If you see the prompt `sshtest@sshtestvm:~$ ` you are all set! |
