TITLE: How to log in by ssh
SSH is a replacement for Telnet and ftp.
To access your math account:
If you are not connected already (for example, by a permanent ethernet connection),
first connect to the Internet using whichever
method you normaly use (dial-up networking, AOL,...)
Then use one of the following methods.
- Go to
http://math.ucdenver.edu select "login here" then
"Login." After a few seconds you will get a basic terminal window. Press enter then login using your
user ID and Password.
- To install SSH on a Windows machine download and install the software from:
http://math.ucdenver.edu/downloads/SSHWinClient-3.0.0.exe
,
You will get multiple well behaved
terminal windows (much nicer than the telnet that comes with Windows) and file transfer windows
that work with Copy/Paste. For more information visit the web site
http://www.ssh.com
- Log in using ssh on a Linux machine from the command line. Some Linux distributions have ssh
already. Or go to ftp://ftp.ssh.com/pub/ssh,
download the latest versions
of ssh1 and ssh2 (at the moment, ssh-1.2.31.tar.gz and ssh-2.4.0.tar.gz),
install first ssh1 and then ssh2 following the instructions in the
downloaded distributions. Then use ssh instead of telnet and sftp instead
of ftp.
