Connecting to an ARC Machine

You will need to create an SSH key to access the ARC machines:

• Use ssh-keygen to create a key. Use a passphrase (password) when prompted. Remember your passphrase and the location of the public and private keys.
• Send your public key to the machine administrator.

The administrator will then provide you with access to your project VM. To connect to the VM with IP or address <vm.address>, use the following:

$ ssh -XY -i </path/to/key> <vm.address> -l <username>

The -XY switch allows X11 forwarding.
