To login to the ALICE cluster you need to perform a hop-like login sequence. The two login node of the ALICE cluster cannot be accessed directly. So one needs to first login to an ssh gateway and then to one of the login nodes. This mechanism is required for both login and file transfer operations. Below we describe how to perform these actions from Linux and Windows, separately,

Login to ALICE from Linux
The login nodes are named:
login1.alice.leidenuniv.nl (10.161.0.12) login2.alice.leidenuniv.nl (10.162.0.13)
Setup ssh JUMP
In your linux server write in ~/.ssh/config for instance
Host hpc1 HostName login1.alice.universiteitleiden.nl User <USERNAME> ProxyJump <USERNAME>@ssh-gw.leidenuniv.nl:22 Host hpc2 HostName login2.alice.universiteitleiden.nl User <USERNAME> ProxyJump <USERNAME>@ssh-gw.leidenuniv.nl:22
(put in your own ulcn account name instead of <USERNAME>).
Alternatively, if your openssh server isn't that recent and doesn't recognize the ProxyJump alias, try this:
Host hpc1 HostName login1.alice.universiteitleiden.nl ForwardX11 yes User <USERNAME> ProxyCommand ssh -X <USERNAME>@sshgw.leidenuniv.nl -W %h:%p
Login to ssh-gw.leidenuniv.nl (ssh <USERNAME>@ssh-gw.leidenuniv.nl) and put your public key in
~/.ssh/authorized_keys
Login through to the HPC login1 node ''ssh login1.alice.universiteitleiden.nl' and put the same public key in
~/.ssh/authorized_keys
Direct login to login node 1
ssh hpc1
and you can even forward X11 now.
File transfer to login node 1
ssh <local_file_name> hpc1:<remote_file_name>
this copies the <local_file_name> file to <remove_file_name> file in your home directory on ALICE.
Login to ALICE from Windows
