Using PuTTY
You must first decide on which machine to connect to. If you are connecring to the E-Bar, you should use one of the linux servers. If you are connecting to the G-Bar, you should use one of their servers, for example hald.gbar.dtu.dk.
Now, run PuTTY by executing the file you just downloaded (putty.exe). You will be presented with the following screen:
In the “Host Name” field, enter the name og the machine you want to connect to. Leave everything else as is, and press the “Open” button.
You will be presented with a prompt asking for your username and password (i.e. your DTU credentials if you are connecting to a databar computer). If everything goes right, this completes the connection precedure, and you will be presented with a terminal on the machine you are connected to.
