(warning) Note: Frost has been moved out from behind the CryptoCard firewall, as of 10/22/2006. You may ssh directly to either frost.ucar.edu or frost.ncar.teragrid.org which will still use your CryptoCard for authentication.


After your account is created, you also need a CryptoCard to login to Frost.

  • Use ssh to login with your UCAS username and password to frost.ncar.teragrid.org
  • Wait for the CryptoCard Challenge prompt, then enter your PIN on your CryptoCard, hit ENT, then type the number that appears on the card at the CryptoCard Challenge prompt.

Example:

$ ssh user@frost.ncar.teragrid.org
gatekeeper password: ********
Token_Response:: ###-####

If you experience issues with your gatekeeper password, please refer to this page on verifying or changing your UCAS password:

http://www.cisl.ucar.edu/docs/password/ucas.jsp

If you receive the 'Token_Response' multiple times in a row, try to resynchronize your cryptocard:
