 +The first task you **absolutely** need to do when you receive your password is to change it. This is due to you receiving your password via email. If the password is not changed in 1 day, your user access will be revoked, and the process needs to be restarted.
 + 
 +[[https://forms.gle/dB6uCc4gBngEeUdY6|Here is a form that you can use to apply for access to the cluster.]]
 +
 +**It is very important that you change the password as soon as you get access to the cluster.**
 +The password can be changed by logging into a machine you have access to using SSH. 
 +The command to update your password is `passwd`. You will first be prompted for your current password, and then the new password.
  
 ===== Access the cluster ===== ===== Access the cluster =====
-The machines provided as part of the cluster are on a private network, meaning that in order to access them, you need to be logged on to the [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Virtual_private_network|VPN]]. +The machines provided as part of the cluster are on a network that is not accessible from the wider internet, meaning that in order to access them, you need to be logged on to the [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Virtual_private_network|VPN]].  
-The VPN is hosted at vpn.ru.is, and to log onto it you need to use your sleep.ru.is login credentials. + 
-The VPN is differently accessible depending on the OS you are running. +Please use a VPN client such as Cisco AnyConnect to log into the RU VPN __vpn.ru.is__Then use the following log-in credentials: 
-The correct way to use your username to log into the VPN, assuming a user called ''aardvark'', is to use ''aardvark@sleep.ru.is'' as the username, and the password normally.  + 
-==== Windows ==== +**Username: username@sleep.ru.is** 
-The sleep.ru.vpn can be accessed with any vpn client that is compatible with cisco's anyconnect. + 
-An example of this is [[https://openconnect.github.io/openconnect-gui/|Openconnect]]. Alternatively, there is the cisco anyconnect clientwhich is however proprietary+Password: your newly set password 
-==== Ubuntu ==== + 
-Similarly to windows, [[https://openconnect.github.io/openconnect-gui/|Openconnect]] can be used to connect to the VPN, both with a command-line-tool and a graphical user interface.  +More detail on the VPN can be found [[cluster:usage_tips:vpn|here]]. 
-==== MACos ====+ 
 +===== JupyterHub ===== 
 +Jupyterhub is a platform that allows multiple users to access computational resources using a graphical user interfaceTo access the JupyterHub, follow the steps in the [[cluster:usage_tips:jupyter|Jupyter]] article. 
 + 
 +In order to access the JupyterHubfirst open a terminal window on your computer and type:  
 + 
 +<code> 
 +ssh yourusersame@dunwich.sleep.ru.is 
 +</code>

 +Then open a browser and access the page [[https://dunwich.sleep.ru.is/jupyter/
