To access your schof or eces files from almost anywhere or to run command-line Unix utilities on Schof or eces-shell, you can use OpenSSH.
OpenSSH-3.2.9 for Windows is available here:
SSHSecureShellClient-3.2.9.exe
Making a command-line SSH connection.
Using SCP to upload/download files.
Launching multiple SSH/SCP sessions.
Once OpenSSH-3.2.9 is installed, you should see an icon on your desktop labeled "SSH Secure Shell Client".
Use this shortcut to get a command-line connection.
To start using SSH, click on "Quick Connect":
Fill in the server name and username information and click on "Connect". Then fill-in your password.
NOTE: Host name could be any Unix/Linux host you have access to including schof.colorado.edu, eces.colorado.edu, or eces-shell.colorado.edu:
If you would like to save your current connection as a profile, then fill-in this window, which will appear when you connect:
You should now have a command-line on the host.
NOTE: eces.colorado.edu provides a menu interface rather than a command line. For command line access, connect to eces-shell:
Using SCP to upload/download files
Once OpenSSH-3.2.9 is installed, you should see an icon on your desktop labeled "SSH Secure File Transfer Client".
Use this shortcut to securely copy files between your Windows computer and Schof.
To start using SCP, click on "Quick Connect":
Fill in the server name and username information and click on "Connect". Then fill-in your password:
If you would like to save your current connection as a profile, then fill-in this window, which will appear when you connect:
Once you are connected, your local directory appears on the left, and the server files appear on the right.
To move files between your computer and server, you can drag-and-drop files between the two windows.
You can also drag files to and from anywhere in Windows Explorer into and out of the remote server window.
You can change where you are in the remote server file system by clicking inside of the right window like you would in Windows Explorer.
You can also click on the "Operation" menu and choose "Go to Folder".
This will give you a dialog box in which you can type the full path of a location on the remote server.
Launching Multiple SSH/SCP Sessions
Once you have EITHER an SSH or SCP session open for a particular server, you can quickly launch additional sessions for that server using the OpenSSH toolbar.
