Accessing your account remotely with SSH
Please note that for the security of our system and your personal data
we do not allow unencrypted connections to our computer system from
the internet! Moreover, the only computer accessible from outside the
ESI is keen.esi.ac.at.
In particular you will not be able to use telnet or ftp to connect to
your account. Hence, in order to connect remotely you can only use
secure shell respectively secure ftp. It works like telnet/ftp with
the only difference that the entire connection is encrypted so that
sensitive information (e.g., your password) cannot be intercepted by
hackers.
The fingerprints of our rsa and dsa public keys are:
rsa 1024 f4:c1:62:e7:e9:90:db:7d:23:65:f6:5f:92:b1:9e:56
dsa 1024 73:4c:61:f2:c9:95:ac:af:31:48:4c:f7:28:a4:65:87
Free secure shell clients are available for virtually all operating systems.
-
Linux: OpenSSH is part of all major distributions.
-
Macintosh: OpenSSH is part of MacOS X. In addition, there is a graphical sftp client Fugu.
Free clients for Mac OS 9 and older are at
macssh.com.
-
Windows: Try e.g. PuTTY.
Note that it might not be legal to use these programs in certain countries.
