title: Accessing an Arvados VM with SSH - Windows Environments
...
-This document is for windows environments. If you are using a unix environment (Linux, OS X, Cygwin), please visit the "Accessing Arvados VM with SSH - Unix Environments":ssh-access-unix.html page.
+This document is for accessing an arvados VM using SSK keys in Windows environments. If you would like to use to access VM through your browser, please visit the "Accessing an Arvados VM with Webshell":vm-login-with-webshell.html page. If you are using a Unix environment (Linux, OS X, Cygwin), please visit the "Accessing an Arvados VM with SSH - Unix Environments":ssh-access-unix.html page.
-Arvados requires a public SSH key in order to securely log in to an Arvados VM instance, or to access an Arvados Git repository. The three sections below help you get started:
-
-# "Getting your SSH key":#gettingkey
-# "Adding your key to Arvados Workbench":#workbench
-# "Using SSH to log into an Arvados VM instance":#login
+{% include 'ssh_intro' %}
h1(#gettingkey). Getting your SSH key
-(Note: if you are using the SSH client that comes with "Cygwin":http://cygwin.com you should follow the "Unix":ssh-access-unix.html).
+(Note: if you are using the SSH client that comes with "Cygwin":http://cygwin.com, please use instructions found in the "Accessing an Arvados VM with SSH - Unix Environments":ssh-access-unix.html page.)
We will be using PuTTY to connect to Arvados. "PuTTY":http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/ is a free (MIT-licensed) Win32 Telnet and SSH client. PuTTY includes all the tools a Windows user needs to create private keys and make SSH connections to your virtual machines in the Arvados Cloud.
# Pageant will now be running in the system tray. Click the Pageant icon to configure.
# Choose _Add Key_ and add the private key which you created in the previous step.
-You are now ready to proceed to "adding your key to the Arvados Workbench.":#workbench
-
-h1(#workbench). Adding your key to Arvados Workbench
-
-h3. From the Workbench dashboard
-
-If you have no SSH keys registered, there should be a notification asking you to provide your SSH public key. On the Workbench dashboard, look for the envelope icon <span class="glyphicon glyphicon-envelope"></span> <span class="badge badge-alert">1</span> in upper right corner (the number indicates there are new notifications). Click on this icon and a dropdown menu should appear with a message asking you to add your public key. Paste your public key into the text area provided and click on the check button to submit the key. You are now ready to "log into an Arvados VM":#login.
-
-h3. Alternate way to add SSH keys
-
-If you want to add more SSH keys, click on the user icon <span class="glyphicon glyphicon-user"></span> in the upper right corner to access the user settings menu, and click on the menu item *Manage ssh keys* to go to the Authorized keys page.
-
-On the *Authorized keys* page, the click on the button <span class="btn btn-primary disabled">Add a new authorized key</span> in the upper right corner.
-
-The page will reload with a new row of information. Under the *public_key* column heading, click on the cell +New authorized key+. This will open an editing popup as shown in this screenshot:
-
-!{{ site.baseurl }}/images/ssh-adding-public-key.png!
-
-Paste the public key that you copied to the cliboard in the previous section into the popup text box, then click on the check mark to save it. This should refresh the page with the public key that you just added now listed under the *public_key* column. You are now ready to "log into an Arvados VM":#login.

-
-To see a list of virtual machines that you have access to and determine the name and login information, click on *Settings* menu in the top navigation bar and click on *Virtual machines*. Once on the *Virtual machines* page, The *hostname* columns lists the name of each available VM. The *logins* column will have a value in the form of @["you"]@. Your login name is the text inside the quotes. In this guide the hostname will be *_shell_* and the login will be *_you_*. Replace these with your hostname and login name as appropriate.
+{% include 'ssh_addkey' %}
h3. Initial configuration
# Click Load to load those saved session settings.
# Click Open to open the SSH window at the command prompt. You will now be logged into your virtual machine.
-_Note_: If you see a hung terminal window with no further action: open a new terminal window by using the Start menu and type <code>plink -P 2222 turnout@switchyard.{{ site.arvados_api_host }} shell</code> in it. Please make sure to replace *shell* with the hostname listed in the _Virtual Machines_ page. Hit enter and type _y_ when prompted to cache the session state. Go back and start PuTTY session using the start menu button.
