Remote Access
From X6AWiki
To access the BNL network remotely from a home or office computer you need to:
1. Create a BNL account:
- enter your life number
- check BNL Domain account and Cryptocard Account
- check the checkbox for Software Token ST-1 (linux, mac and windows versions are available)
2. After receiving an email confirming that your account has been setup, call the helpdesk at x5522 (631 344 5522) so that the ITD personnel can work with you to change the access password.
3. Install the NoMachine client (which is free) on your office or home computer (linux, mac and windows versions are available),
-> NX Client Products link

4. Contact Jean Jakoncic (jakoncic@bnl.gov) to setup all parameters for future sessions.
Before your first remote access you should schedule to test your system with Jean Jakoncic.
If you like to analyze your data at one of the beamline computers, we suggest that you install the software on two different systems (one for the data collection and one for the data processing). The other option is to have two NoMachine sessions on the same computer.
