Please see this page. The accounts are distributed by kerberos, so an account on one machine will work on all machines.
The only way to remotely login to the Keck workstations is to use secure shell (ssh). For example: ssh your_username@w01.keck2.ucsd.edu
.
If you are using MS Windows you can download either MobaXterm or putty ssh clients. If you are using Linux or MacOS then ssh
is already installed as a part of the OpenSSH package.
Please note that direct ssh logins to Keck Center computers are allowed only from a local Urey Hall network subnet or the UCSD VPN.
Outgoing email only.
If you are logged into one of the Keck workstations execute command passwd
to change your password.
See the available software page for a list of the software that is currently installed and some links to the software home pages.
If it's free software, just e-mail keck-help@keck2.ucsd.edu and let us know what you need and we'll try to get it installed.
Every user has 10GB home directory quota.
