Logging into the Hall C cluster
From HallCWiki
Jump to navigationJump to searchThe Hall C DAQ and online analysis machines are now behind a 2-factor controlled gateway called hallgw.jlab.org.
You now need a 2-factor token in order to log in. If you do not have one, you can ask for one at the Help Desk.
There are two types of tokens: a physical 'CrypoCard' key fob device, and a software token + application (called MP-1) that can be installed on your smartphone.
How to use the 2-factor token to log in
The procedure to ssh into a Hall C machine inside the accelerator fence is now:
- ssh <user>@hallgw.jlab.org
- Use your CUE username at the prompt
- Use the 2-factor token to generate your password as indicated below:
- CryptoCard (the physical keychain-style token):
- Press the button and it will display a number. Type in your PIN immediately followed by the digits on the Cryptocard as your password (no spaces, no dashes).
- MP-1 Software token (ie. Android, iPhone, Blackberry):
- Run the MP-1 app and enter your PIN when prompted. Enter only the displayed 7 digit number (including the '-') at the hallgw.jlab.org password prompt ie: 'XXX-XXXX'
- CryptoCard (the physical keychain-style token):
