WARNING: if you get the following error message: "Unable to negotiate with 193.61.196.110 port 22: no matching key exchange method found. Their offer: diffie-hellman-group1-sha1" then add the following options to the ssh command-line: ssh -oKexAlgorithms=+diffie-hellman-group1-sha1 -oHostKeyAlgorithms=+ssh-dss uid@ecaccess.ecmwf.int. A new version of the ssh plugin will be delivered soon to avoid this problem.
You will then be prompted for your passcode (obtained by entering your PIN number into your security token), and then will get a UNIX prompt, typically '$' or '%'. A login with SSH puts you automatically in your home directory on ecgate.
