Accessing

IP: 160.75.27.83 SSH port: 1542 Access from: ITU or ITU VPN.

VPN Help

• BIDB has instructions for accessing the VPN.
• I have also provided here a script for accessing the ITU VPN from Ubuntu (ituvpn.sh) (tested on Kubuntu 16.04).

SSH help

The SSH command to connect from a Unix environment:

   ssh -X -p 1542 hossein@160.75.27.83

Switch meanings:

 * -p 1542: connect on port 1542
 * -X: This allows you to run X applications. Omit it if you will be pure

command line.

Note: to check that X forwarding is working, once you have connected, try running on the server the command:

   xeyes

Or:

   dolphin

You could for example run spyder like this. But there can be some latency across the network.
