Using the IPython Notebook

login as usual, with X forwarding on tjhe course server

start a so-called virtual Python environment (virtualenv):

source /opt/ipytest/bin/activate

this changes your promt, don't worry.

move (cd) to a folder if needed, for example where the data is you want to analyse

launch iPython notebook

ipython notebook

check where it says "The IPython Notebook is running at: http://127.0.0.1:8888/" and note the last four digits ('8888' in this case)

Mac/Linux

start another terminal session and you create a so-called SSH tunnel, make sure to use the same four digits in the middle

ssh -L 30000:127.0.0.1:8888 username@bioinfcourse.hpc.uio.no

leave both terminal windows open

Windows

see http://howto.ccs.neu.edu/howto/windows/ssh-port-tunneling-with-putty/ on how to set up your tunnel

source port: 30000

destination: 127.0.0.1:8888 (use those same four digits as you noted down above)

on the classroom PC, open a webbrowser (e.g. firefox)

point the browser to 127.0.0.1:30000

Using Rstudio

Linux or Mac

open a terminal an write

ssh -L 20000:localhost:8787 username@bioinfcourse.hpc.uio.no

the port number on the left (20000) is an example. Choose any large port number > 20000

the one on the right should *always* be 8787

Once you type the above command, login with your SSH username and password, like you normally do.  

​Windows

see http://howto.ccs.neu.edu/howto/windows/ssh-port-tunneling-with-putty/ on how to set up your tunnel

source port: 20000 (choose any large port number > 20000)

destination: localhost:8787 (dont change this number)

on the classroom PC, open a webbrowser (e.g. firefox)

point the browser to localhost:20000 to access the RStudio server login screen. You can then type your username and password to login and access your R environment from your web browser.


3)For Windows users, you should use an SSH client like PuTTY. You can then establish a tunnel in a similar way as step 2) above by using this document as a guide:
