The department UNIX/Linux servers require the use of:
ssh username@euclid.ucsd.edu
". Substitute your Math Username for the username part.euclid.ucsd.edu
" -> For the "User Name:" field, type in your Math Username -> Click the "Connect" button (or hit Enter) -> For the "Password:" prompt, type in your password -> Click the "OK" button (or hit Enter).ssh username@euclid.ucsd.edu
". Substitute your Math Username for the username part.Apple Mac OS X comes with SSH pre-installed.
Go to Applications -> Utilities -> Terminal.app -> At the prompt, type "ssh username@euclid.ucsd.edu".
Use Software Update or manually download software updates to update to the latest SSH version.
For a graphical SFTP client, download and install Cyberduck, Fetch, Fugu, or FileZilla.
Or use the pre-installed command-line "sftp" or "scp" clients from a Terminal.app window.
For Mac OS X 10.8 Mountain Lion or newer, download and install XQuartz.
For Mac OS X 10.7 Lion or older, use the Apple X11 client under Applications -> Utilities -> X11.app. If X11.app is not already installed, download and install Apple X11.
To run X11 graphical programs, open a XQuartz.app/X11.app window -> At the prompt, type "ssh -X username@euclid.ucsd.edu" to login with automatic X11 port forwarding enabled. For X11 programs that require the use of trusted X11 forwarding, use the "-Y" flag instead of "-X".
Download and install SSH Secure Shell for Workstations or PuTTY.
(If you do not have local administrative privileges to install software on the Microsoft Windows computer you're using, download and install PuTTY since it can be run without an installation process first.)
The SSH Secure Shell for Workstations software includes BOTH a SSH client (named Secure Shell Client) and a SFTP client (named Secure File Transfer Client).
For other graphical SFTP clients, download and install Cyberduck, WinSCP, or FileZilla.
(If you do not have local administrative privileges to install software on the Microsoft Windows computer you're using, download and install the "portable executables" version of WinSCP.)
To run X11 graphical programs, use a Microsoft Windows X11 client such as Xming that can connect to the server using SSH (not via telnet, rlogin, rexec, or XDM).
Most Unix/Linux distributions come with SSH pre-installed.
Open a xterm or other terminal window/console -> At the prompt, type "ssh username@euclid.ucsd.edu".
If SSH is not already installed, read the system documentation on how to update your system or install OpenSSH.
Use the command-line "sftp" or "scp" clients.
To run Unix X11 graphical programs, open a xterm or other terminal window within a local X11 session, and type "ssh -X username@euclid.ucsd.edu" to login with automatic X11 port forwarding enabled. For X11 programs that require the use of trusted X11 forwarding, use the "-Y" flag instead of "-X".
