Updated 2020-09-15
Computer Access
Usually students can use the ECE computers by physically go to the computer lab (this is obviously not possible right now). Thus we have to remote-connect into the computers using SSH clients and remote desktop.
VPN Access
In order to connect to the ECE-SOC computers via SSH or remote desktop, you need to be on UBC myVPN.
If you’re using Windows and Mac, you can use Cisco AnyConnect:
- Download Cisco AnyConnect
- Connect to
myvpn.ubc.caand enter your CWL information.
If you’re on Linux, follow the UBC IT tutorial for OpenConnect: https://it.ubc.ca/services/email-voice-internet/myvpn/myvpn-setup-gnulinux
Remote Desktop
The remote desktop client we’re using is x2go. Details on how to set it up is located on ECE wiki: https://help.ece.ubc.ca/X2go.
