Gateway Login
To get to the clusters you must first authenticate into a secure gateway
system that utilizes one time passwords via ssh and secure card access. This
ensures that only authorized logins can reach the clusters.
- Login to scs-gw via ssh using your username and password
- At the SafeWord login screen enter the [seed]-[card serial]
(the seed is a string that we gave you, and the card serial
number is located on the back of the card itself)
- Enter the 4 digit PIN (that we gave you) into the secure card (memorize
it!). This will activate the card.
- The SafeWord login screen will prompt you with a challenge string. Enter
these 4 digits into your secure card.
- The secure ID will then show the responce to the challenge. Enter this
response into the SafeWord login screen (6 characters)
If you encounter any problems with this, please contact
scs@lbl.gov.
