You can connect for the first time to TEMS via SSH from ECGATE:
$> ssh tems
These set-up steps will allow you to connect to TEMS from other systems, e.g. your workstation or Linux VDI.
Upon logging in, please take a look at the message of the day displayed on the login nodes (or review /etc/motd).
Password-less access from / to other platforms
If connecting from a different platform into TEMS and to enable password-less connections and transfers between different platforms, you will need to enable ssh key authentication.
Check if you have an existing rsa key pair on ECGATE:
$> ls ~/.ssh/id_rsa* ~/.ssh/id_rsa ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub
If you don't, you may generate them like so:
$> ssh-keygen -t rsa # press 'enter' 3 more times
Make sure it is added into the different platforms to be used
If the key was already present in the
~/.ssh/authorized_keys
file, it will be duplicated.$> ssh-copy-id -i ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub ecgate $> ssh-copy-id -i ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub cca $> ssh-copy-id -i ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub tems
Copy also your private key onto those platforms so you can make the connections in both directions:
$> rsync -av ~/.ssh/id_rsa cca:.ssh/ $> rsync -av ~/.ssh/id_rsa tems:.ssh/
