Introduction

Developing web pages hosted on uoregon.edu requires you to learn a "IT Cocktail" of web applications: Unix, a text editor, XHTML, CSS, and SSH/SFTP. These applications are very similar across platforms, e.g., Windows, OS X, and Linux.

This learning module covers the basics of installing and using an SSH client for Windows and OS X.

Learning Objectives

After using this learning module, you should be able to

  • Download and install an SSH client for Windows and/or OS X
  • Connect to shell.uoregon.edu using an SSH client
  • Transfer files between your computer (the local host) and shell.uoregon.edu (the remote host)

Next: Enable Shell Access for your uoregon.edu Account.
