BwFileStorage SSH

Using SSH from Unix client

Access login cluster: bwfilestorage-login.lsdf.kit.edu

Example:

>ssh -p 22 ka_xy1234@bwfilestorage-login.lsdf.kit.edu

Access per ssh key:

Example:

>ssh-keygen -b 2048 -t rsa -C "Login username"
>ssh-copy-id -i ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub ka_xy1234@bwfilestorage-login.lsdf.kit.edu

Attention: Posix style file commands (for instance chmod) must not be applied on files on a CIFS share. This may revoke sharing and Access Lists (ACLs), steering the access to the files.

Using SSH from Windows and Mac client

Windows clients do not have a SSH client installed by default, so it needs to be installed before this protocol can be used.

Tools for example:

• OpenSSH
• WinSCP (for Windows)
• FileZilla
• Cygwin
• Putty suite
• Cygwin
