- At the password prompt, enter your SNL Unclassified Kerberos password
- You will be returned to the srngate menu above, select option 1 ssh session to ssh to a specific system
- Try the system name e.g. “skybridge”. If that doesn’t work, try a specific login node name. Login nodes are usually in machine-login[1,2,…] format.
- Most HPC clusters and testbeds will use the SRN Kerberos password or Yubikey pin + output. A notable exception is Solo, which will use an ECN password.
