~~Difficulty: 2~~ '''SSH''', which stands for "secure shell", is a way to log into a server and execute commands on a [[command line]].

~~SSH from~~ ==Windows ~~: PuTTY~~==

1. Find and download putty.exe on this page:

2. Open putty.exe

3. Enter "wso.williams.edu" (or whatever) for the host, and "SSH" for the protocol.

4. Click "Open"

7. You're in! Happy computing.

==Mac/Linux==

Let's say your user name is ewilliam and you want to log in to wso.williams.edu. From a [[command line]], type

ssh ewilliam@wso.williams.edu

Enter your password when prompted. If it's your first time and you get a warning about host keys, just say "yes".
