Amazon Instance and Data Buckets

We have an Amazon Virtual Machine setup for the Hackathon attendees to access and use for storing and processing data. You should contact @MBoustani, @chrismattmann, @lewismc or @darth-pr for a username and login credentials for the machine if you wish to use it. Once you have feedback, progress with the following instructions:

The machine can be accessed by using the ssh program as follows.

ssh nsfpolardata.dyndns.org

login: <username>

password: <provided>

We have a shared account on the machine which we encourage you to use. This can be accessed as follows.

ssh ndeploy@localhost

We also have s3 data buckets configured and available for each proposed session. These can be accessed from the ndeploy account using the s3cmd as follows:

[ndeploy@nsfpolardata ~]$ s3cmd ls
