====== Remote Access ======
If you want to connect to CS machines from your dorm room or home, use a web browser or an SSH client. SSH encrypts all communications, so connections are secure. CS systems are normally accessible only from campus networks; for off‑campus access the supported method is Citrix. Citrix works best via the [[https://servicedesk.vassar.edu/solutions/505440-citrix-client-installation.portal | Citrix Workspace (Desktop)]] app but you can also use the web portal at vapps.vassar.edu. After logging into the Citrix desktop you can open a browser or terminal and connect to [[https://remote.cs.vassar.edu | the CS remote server]].

===== Browser or Command Line Access =====

<note>NOTE: mote is not meant to be used for work, only for accessing other workstations, so nothing is installed on it. To run any programs, you'll need to ssh from there to another workstation. Even better, set up a [[help:general_linux:jump|proxy jump]] so that you don't have to worry about mote at all. You can use the hostname of any workstation. For example, workstations in the Agile Compute Lab have hostnames "acl###", where ### is a number from 201 to 220. From mote, you can `ssh acl215`, to access Asprey Compute Lab workstation 215.</note>
