Creating an Account and Accessing the Nautilus Server

Currently, the machine has a single user, nautilus. Eventually, we will add more users. To access the machine, follow the following steps:

• Generate an ssh key pair. There are several instructions online. On Windows, you can use the following simple instructions. In the following, I will assume the key pairs have the filenames, oai_rsa for the private key, and oai_rsa.pub for the public key.
• Send the pulic key to the administrator, who will add the key to the list of authorized keys for the user, nautilus.
• On your local machine, you can now login. For example, in the Windows powershell, you can log in with:

    ssh [email protected] -i .ssh/oai_rsa
