Setting up a remote connection to MATLAB

Machines of the Terminal Room

The login machines are login The names of the other machines in the Terminal Room are: tosca desdemona erda lucretia pamina lucia senta tristan adina isabella brunnhilde dalila giulietta julia elektra carmen tatiana elvira iokaste luisa woglinde salome iphigenia gretchen medea gilda fenema despina imogene irene mimi turandot ulrica wellgunde )

From Linux

Install the VPN client and log in to SDU network with your SDU account.

From Terminal:

ssh -Y [username]@[machine].imada.sdu.dk

using username and passwords of your IMADA account. Then from the shell:

matlab

See above for a list of machines. (If you append & after matlab then the program is run in background and the shell terminal is free for use.)

Note, you can avoid using VPN but then you need first to log in to the IMADA login machines. ssh -Y [username]@login.imada.sdu.dk. Then from there you can log in to one of the other machines.

From MacOSX

Install the VPN client.

Make sure you have installed the X Server

Start a VPN connection to vpn.sdu.dk with your SDU account

From Terminal:

ssh -Y [username]@[machine].imada.sdu.dk

using username and passwords of your IMADA account. Then from Terminal:

matlab

See above for a list of machines. (If you append & after matlab then the program is run in background and the shell terminal is free for use.)

Note, you can avoid using VPN but then you need first to log in to the IMADA login machines. ssh -Y [username]@login.imada.sdu.dk. Then from there you can log in to one of the other machines.

From Windows

Try one of the following:

  • Download and install xming

In MobaXterm:

Launch the program and click on the key Session on the top bar. Choose SSH.

Fill the form typing login.imada.sdu.dk as host using your account for the IMADA terminal room as username. (If you have a VPN connection working, then you can write directly the name of the Terminal room machine to which you want to connect.)

Once the connection has started, from the terminal type:

ssh -Y [machine]

and then:

matlab.

A remote matlab session should start on your computer.
