In [[SPO600]], remote access to two servers is provided.

== Preparatory Steps ==

In order to gain access to these computers, you must send an [[SSH]] key to your [[User:Chris Tyler|professor]].

# Follow the steps outlined under [[SSH#Using_Public_Keys_with_SSH Using Public Keys with SSH]] to create your key.
# Save the key in a file named <code>'''yourUserId'''.pub</code> -- for example, if your Seneca user ID is "jldoe", save the key in the file <code>jldoe.pub</code> using a command such as: <code>cp ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub '''jldoe'''.pub</code>
# Attach that file to an e-mail message and send it to [mailto:chris.tyler@senecacollege.ca chris.tyler@senecacollege.ca]

An account will be created within a couple of days of sending the key.

{{Admon/tip|Check Your Key!|Your professor uses an automated script to create accounts, so the key must be valid and correctly named in order to work successfully.}}

== AArch64: red ==

The first server is an [[ARMv8]] AArch64 system. This machine is accessible via SSH using port 2222 on the host Iraq.proximity.on.ca. To connect from a command-line ssh client:

ssh -p 2222 '''username'''@iraq.proximity.on.ca

You can simplify this process by creating an entry in your ~/.ssh/config file:

Host "red"
hostname "iraq"
port 2222

You can then simply:

ssh '''username'''@red

== x86_64: australia ==

The other server is an x86_64 system known as Australia.proximity.on.ca. To connect to it, issue this command:

ssh '''username'''@australia.proximity.on.ca
