Interim access to StoreBioinfo
Interim access solution to StoreBioinfo
The StoreBioinfo project currently develops a new access infrastructure to the storage resources. Available means of access in the meantime before the StoreBioInfo portal is ready is through Secure SHell (SSH) aware software.
Linux/Mac have tightly integrated support for transfer of files over the ssh protocols, and MS Windows based systems have several free and licensed options to choose between for ssh support. Many university IT-departments will have support for installing/providing such software.
How-to access in practice
Once one has been given a username and a password, start up an ssh-capable file browser application and use the following parameters to connect:
- Host/hostname/server: norstore-osl-app0.uio.no
- Username: as provided
- Passwd: as provided
- Port: default (22)
Your storage project in StoreBioinfo will be located under:
/norstore/project/storebioinfo/your-project-name
and it's often possible to specify this setting when connecting in many ssh-filetransfer-clients.
