Add info for first time users in UH Server #166

Closed Esteban82 closed 3 months ago

Esteban82 commented 2 years ago

I have this tips for first time users in the University of Hawaii servers (or any other?). Where should I put it?

Login in the server with ssh and them use groups to see if one belongs to the gmt groups (and thus has permission to work):

e.g.:

ssh esteban82@gmtserver.SOEST.Hawaii.edu
(If the password is ok, then a message like this will appear)

We should expand the README.md for this repo to cover lots of these things. I am sorry, stuck in NY City for a few more days with limited time to do stuff, but back in Hawaii this weekend.

I agree we can add Will to the local accounts on gmtserver. @willschlitzer , please tell me your preferred Unix login name so I can get SOEST IT to do this - they will deal with the password setup.

I think we can close this. Paul updated the readme and I think now it is easier fore first time user.
