SSH is a Secure Shell protocol that allows users access to a remote machine (Yeti cluster) in a secure manner (encrypted transmission of data, user names and passwords over the network).
To get started,
- Windows users first will have to install Xming and PuTTY. After setting up configurations, Click
Open
and PuTTY will open up a window. Type your user name to login to Yeti. Your user name is whatever your email is but without '@usgs.gov'. Your password is your AD password. - Mac users open a Terminal. To open a Terminal, press
command
+space
, then typeterm
and pressenter
. The Terminal window will pop up. You can customize your Terminal, by clicking on Terminal -> Preferences… (or alternatively, presscommand
+,
) to open up Preferences. There you can choose a profile that you like (make that Default to open up new Terminal window with that profile).
In the Terminal (Mac) , type:
$ ssh yeti.cr.usgs.gov
Use your AD credentials. Your user name is whatever your email is but without '@usgs.gov'. Your password is AD password.
After you login to Yeti, you'll see the login screen that tells you what your account is.
