Accessing the LWP via SSH
The virtual LWP as well as local LWP workstations can be also accessed via CLI using the SSH protocol.
The basic command to connect to a virtual LWP session using a terminal is:
$ ssh <p_or_s_number>@ssh.lwp.rug.nl
To connect to a remote, but locally installed LWP workstation, its IP address or hostname have to be used instead of ssh.lwp.rug.nl. Furthermore, your user needs to be added to the list of allowed SSH users on that machine.
To see how that works, please consult the SSH HowTo section in the LWP wiki.
Furthermore, when connecting via SSH, it is also possible to setup passwordless authentication via SSH keys. The Passwordless SSH HowTo section of the LWP wiki describes the setup.
