How to Login

🆀 Public key authentication failed.

🅐 Public key authentication fails if write permission is granted to group, other in the home directory. Also if any permission other than owner is granted to ~/.ssh and ~/.ssh/authorised_keys, public key authentication fails. You need to check the permission of the following three directories and files.

You can change the permission using the chmod command.

（例）
chmod 750 ~/
chmod 700 ~/.ssh
chmod 600 ~/.ssh/authorized_keys
chmod 600 ~/.ssh/id_rsa
chmod 600 ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub

🅐 When you try to log in to the NIG supercomputer, the following message may appear and you may not be able to log in.

$ ssh gw.ddbj.nig.ac.jp

There are two gateway nodes of the NIG supercomputer: gw.ddbj.nig.ac.jp and gw2.ddbj.nig.ac.jp. By executing ssh-keygen -R gw.ddbj.nig.ac.jp , ssh-keygen -R gw2.ddbj.nig.ac.jp respectively, this error will disappear. Execute it on the user's computer, not on the NIG supercomputer.

When you execute it, the error will disappear, but you will be asked Are you sure you want to continue connecting (yes/no)? . Select `yes'.

This confirmation message is displayed the first time when connecting from a user's computer to the NIG supercomputer server, to make sure that the connection is to a legitimate server and not to a spoofed fake server.

It will be asked only once the first time and will not be displayed again the next time.

🆀 SSH connections frequently disconnected.

🅐 Add the following to ~/.ssh/config.

Host *
    ServerAliveInterval 20
    TCPKeepAlive no

🅐 Yes, you can login.

Current Windows runs on a virtual machine from the beginning to use WSL2, and Ubuntu on WSL2 Linux runs as another virtual machine. (For example, see this link 🔗 https://www.thomasmaurer.ch/2019/06/install-wsl-2-on-windows-10/)

In other words, it operates with two completely independent virtual machines in one physical computer. The disk space is also independent, and these two virtual computers operate in a networked state on a single physical computer.

Although they look similar, PowerShell runs on a virtual machine running the Windows OS, but the screen with the Ubuntu prompt is running on a virtual machine with the Ubuntu Linux OS.

Therefore, you need to copy the private key created in PowerShell to Ubuntu Linux.

For example:

you@wsl2:~$ cp /mnt/c/Users/you/.ssh/id_rsa .ssh
you@wsl2:~$ ssh your_account@gw2.ddbj.nig.ac.jp
Enter passphrase for key '/home/you/.ssh/id_rsa':

Thank you for using NIG supercomputer system.
This is the gateway node, do not run program here.
Please use 'qlogin' to login to a login node.
