First you need to find your login-id:
- If your account was created PRIOR to August 2019, its your email address (eg. [email protected]/[email protected]),
- else you use your AAU-ID (eg. [email protected]/)
- Remember to include the domain in your user (e.g. [email protected])
For linux-users, you can replace the <aau-id> in the following text, and append to your local ~/.ssh/config:
host aaugw
HostName sshgw.aau.dk
User <aau-id>
ForwardAgent yes
host mcc3
HostName deis-mcc3-fe01.srv.aau.dk
User <aau-id>
ForwardAgent yes
host mcc3_proxy
HostName deis-mcc3-fe01.srv.aau.dk
User <aau-id>
ProxyJump aaugw
ForwardAgent yes
You should now be able to login to the cluster via the internal network by ssh mcc3 using your AAU password.
Consider using ssh-copy-id described below to login without having to type your password every time.
You can also replace deis-mcc3-fe01.srv.aau.dk with its backup deis-mcc3-fe02.srv.aau.dk.
It is recomended that you copy your ssh-key to the cluster to avoid typing your password more than strictly needed. If you do not allready have ssh-keys generated, convenient guides exist online.
Linux users can conveniently copy the key to the DEIS-MCC machine using the following commands on your local machine.
ssh-add
ssh-copy-id mcc3
Otherwise you can use scp or any other tool to place the keys on the cluster in ~/.ssh/
If you manually copy the keys, make sure to run the following commands (while logged in to the cluster) to ensure any private keys stay private.
chmod 600 -R ~/.ssh
If you are outside the AAU-network, your primary way of access to the to the AAU-network is the AAU-VPN.
However, you may without guarrantees use the AAU-SSH-Gateway. Do ssh mcc3_proxy to go through the sshgw.aau.dk tunnel. Remember to use the deismcc_proxy host-config in the above example.
If you use the ssh-gateway, you need 2-factor authentication, which you should already have setup to use other AAU-resources.
You will be met by the following prompt:
$ ssh mcc3_proxy
Hello, this is the SSH gateway.
This server uses 2-factor authentication.
Remember to setup your account at https://aka.ms/mfasetup first.

Linux users setting up from outside the AAU-network, can conveniently copy the ssh-key using the following commands:
ssh-add
ssh-copy-id aaugw
ssh-copy-id mcc3_proxy
