Of course, there are still missing features and it has not been tested extensively, but the latest MobaXterm Preview version is the first which can be run on Linux using Wine.įor the moment, the following features work in our early tests: local terminal, X11 server, SSH / telnet / rlogin / rsh / VNC / FTP / SFTP sessions, TFTP, FTP, HTTP daemons, graphical SSH browser, remote SSH monitoring, SSH tunnels, multi-execution and macros. We brought many modifications into MobaXterm in order for it to run smoothly under Wine. This article is about trying to run MobaXterm under Linux thanks to a compatibility layer software called Wine.Īlthough there is no Linux version of MobaXterm available for the moment, we have recently tried to make MobaXterm work on Linux by using the great Wine compatibility layer. MobaXterm is only supported under Windows operating system. The login node is where you will edit your code, execute basic UNIX commands, and submit your jobs from to the SLURM job scheduler.Disclaimer: there is no official Linux version of MobaXterm for the moment. Furthermore, in many instances for x11 forwarding to work properly Mac users need to use the Terminal application that comes with Xquartz instead of the default Mac terminal application.Ī successful login takes you to “login node” resources that have been set aside for user access. The following are ssh commands for each cluster (be sure to use your UNC ONYEN and password for the login).įor Longleaf: ssh -X Dogwood: ssh -X enable x11 forwarding Mac users will need to download, install, and run Xquartz on their local machine in addition to using the “-X” or “-Y” ssh option. Mac users can use ssh from within their Terminal application (under the Utilities folder in Applications) to connect to Longleaf or Dogwood. The steps for Dogwood are identical except the Session icon is used to create a Dogwood session using for “Remote host.” Then use the Session icon to create a Longleaf SSH session using for “Remote host” and your ONYEN for the “username” (Port should be left at 22). The following are ssh commands for each cluster.įor Longleaf: ssh -X Dogwood: ssh -X suggest Windows users download MobaXterm (Home Edition) however other ssh clients include SSH Secure Shell and SecureCRT and others (e.g. Be sure to use your UNC ONYEN and password for the login. If you wish to enable x11 forwarding use the “-X” or “-Y” ssh option. Linux users can use ssh from within their Terminal application to connect to Longleaf or Dogwood.


See the OnDemand Web Portal documentation for more information.


In addition to the command line methods described below for Linux, Windows, and Mac clients, you can use a web browser to work with Longleaf. Users will need to use ssh from their local machine to log into Research Computing clusters.
