Connecting to Computers
There are 2 ways to connect to the departmental computers
- By using the 2 Jump Hosts directly accessible to you from outside the department.
These Jump Hosts are called
- meteo.mcgill.ca, also known as zephyr,
- aos.meteo.mcgill.ca
Once logged into zephyr, or aos, you may connect to any other computer in the department as if you were inside.
Please do not run your scripts/code on the Jump Hosts!
- An alternative method if you are a McGill Student/Employee/Affliate is to use the McGill VPN. Please be advised that you need to be registered to two factor Authentication 2FA for McGill VPN. While on VPN, AOS computers see you as being on campus.
Connecting from Windows, Linux or OS X
Without graphics
Once you have connected to the gateway, OR are on VPN, you can use a ssh terminal to connect to any linux AOS workstation.
ssh USERNAME@zephyr.meteo.mcgill.ca
In Microsoft Windows(10+), you can run ssh through the "cmd" terminal (Start Menu --> Run --> cmd) or through PowerShell. On Linux or a Mac, you have a terminal by default.
You may be interested in using Software:tmux in combination with your SSH connections for long-running jobs.
With Graphics
