  • You can ssh to coyote only from MIT IP addresses. This means you either need to be on campus or be connected via the MIT VPN. (This was to mitigate security attacks on the cluster.)
  • The default shell on coyote is tcsh. To change to bash, issue:  chsh chsh -p /bin/bash my_username. You might need to use usermod rather than chsh.

Getting started

  • Wiki Markup
    Email Greg (a.k.a. "\[greg\]") (bio-admin@techsquare.com). Greg will request confirmation that you're in the lab, so it's best if you immediately cc a lab member that Greg already knows.
  • Consider adding coyote to you ~/.ssh/config file.
  • Make sure you understand the difference between the head node and the queues before you start doing any work.
