SSH into a Machine

To SSH into one of the CS Department servers or lab machines, first open a terminal window. Then you need to use the ssh command for a domain specific machine with your CS account username and password. An example of how you would log into bg1 is provided below.

$ ssh This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.
# If a key difference warning is encountered, enter 'yes'
# You will then be prompted for your CS account password 

If you receive the "WARNING: REMOTE HOST IDENTIFICATION HAS CHANGED!",  for Macs use the command:

$ ssh-keygen -R "host-name"

To generate a new key and try to ssh again.

For Windows, you need to locate your .ssh directory and remove the known_hosts file.
