- Enter your COE password. It will ask you to remember the password. Say "no"
- Now you are logged into one of our gateway host machines.

How to log into Linux machines and get a graphical program to display on your local machine
- You are now logged into gateway on the black box section on the bottom right is your cursor waiting for input.
- Type this command.
- linux-load --> this will display about 10 linux machines such as ergs, farads, grams etc
- Pick a machine that has the least number of users and type the following command
- ssh -Y -p 27 <machine> ---> the Y is capitalized and place the name of the machine.
- The first time you log in to this machine it will ask you to authenticate your host simply type yes
- If all goes well you should now be logged into the Linux machine.
- To run a graphical program like "matlab" simply type this:
- matlab & ---> the ampersand symbol allows the session to run in the background. If all goes well matlab should appear on your desktop.
- That should do it.
