Bildet kan inneholde: skrifttype.

SSH to nird (using 2FA and Sigma2-password):

$ ssh -X nird.sigma2.no
(kjetba@nird.sigma2.no) One-time password (OATH) for `kjetba':
(kjetba@nird.sigma2.no) Password:
Welcome to nird.sigma2.no!

To access the license you have to be member of the group ns9600k (Mixed-phase Clouds).

Also you have to open a ssh-tunnel to our license server (using 2FA and UIO-password):

[kjetba@login3-nird-lmd ~]$ ssh -o ExitOnForwardFailure=yes -g -f -N -L 8765:geo-lisens2.uio.no:4080 pingo.uio.no

Then run IDL:

[kjetba@login3-nird-lmd ~]$ module load idl/9.1.0
[kjetba@login3-nird-lmd ~]$ idl
IDL 9.1.0 (linux x86_64 m64). (c) 2024, NV5 Geospatial Solutions, Inc.

When done for the day, close the tunnel by killing the process holding port 8765:

$ lsof -i :8765
COMMAND     PID    USER   FD   TYPE   DEVICE SIZE/OFF NODE NAME
ssh     2282371 hpverne    5u  IPv6 73068822      0t0  TCP localhost:8765 (LISTEN)
ssh     2282371 hpverne    6u  IPv4 73068823      0t0  TCP view-localhost:8765 (LISTEN)

$ kill 2282371
