ssh is a program for logging into a remote machine and for executing commands on a remote machine from a Linux or MAC system.


Access

OpenSSH is the standard ssh client on Linux and MAC and it is freely available for everyone.

Text more remote access to an HPC system is typically available over the encrypted secure shell protocol. Logging in with OpenSSH on a Linux Cluster is done with:

$ ssh -l <login> <cluster>

Here login is your user name and cluster is one of the frontend nodes of the system. A list of frontend nodes is provided as part of the side specific information.

If you need to start graphical applications you need to enable X11 forwarding/X11 tunneling by your ssh client. For OpenSSH this is done by giving it the "-X" command line option:

$ ssh -X -l <login> <cluster>
