Remote Connection (Linux)

If you connect to your office system from a Windows system, we recommend MobaXterm (https://mobaxterm.mobatek.net/), which has an X11 server, so GUI windows will open across the network. 

Basic SSH instructions:

1. Connect to U-M VPN

2. Open a command prompt, or MobaXterm, and run the command ssh uniqname@hostname.engin.umich.edu). 

EXAMPLE: ssh myusername@mycomputername.engin.umich.edu
