-> Secure Shell Client. From your home computer, the path may
be slightly different. 2) To open the connection dialog box you can click
on File and go to Connect or simply press Enter or Space Bar.
3) Type in dunx1.irt.drexel.edu for the Host Name
and enter YOUR userid for the User Name. Leave all of the other
settings the way they appear. If they happen to be blank, set the
port number to 22 and the Authentication Method to Keyboard Interactive.
4) If this is the first time that you are using SSH
to connect to your DUNX1 account then you will get a dialog box
with the choices Yes, No and Cancel. This box is to verify the encryption
key being used. Click Yes to proceed.
5) You are now prompted to enter your password.
6) You will now be presented with a command prompt
on your DUNX1 account, which means that you are connected.
7) Make sure that you have a public_html
directory by typing the command ls and pressing
enter. If you see the public_html directory listed, proceed
to step 9, otherwise go to step 8.
8) At the command prompt type in the command mkdir
public_html and press enter. If you get the response:
mkdir: Failed to make directory "public_html"; File exists
that means that you already had the directory and can proceed to
the next step.

and press enter.
10) At the command prompt type in the command exit
and press enter. This will disconnect you from your DUNX1 account.
