Click this link to download secure SSH and FTP clients to your computer: SSHSecureShellClient- 3.2.9.ex.
You will be asked to log in. Just use your Net ID and password as you would when logging into Owlspace.
Your browser should start downloading a file SSHSecureShellClient-3.2.9 .exe. Once it is downloaded, run it. You’ll be asked a series of configuration questions.
The software will install itself and present you with a window indicating that setup is complete. Click Finish.
Now we have the software necessary to transfer files between your laptop and Clear. Go to your Start menu and under the new folder titled SSH Secure Shell, select the application Secure File Transfer Client.
A window will pop up. This is a client for transferring files from your computer using the Secure File Transfer Protocol (FTP). In the upper left hand corner of the window, there is a Quick Connect button. Select that. Next to Host Name type bellssh.clear.rice.edu. Next to User Name type your Net ID. Hit Connect. You will be presented with a Host Identification window. Just click Yes.
Click OK when the Rice University Network prompt comes up. Enter the password you use for logging in to Owlspace at the next prompt.
It may take a few seconds, but the right hand side of the window should now show the files you have on Clear. To copy your homework to Clear, just navigate to where the files are on your computer in the left hand side of the window, and then click and drag them to the right. An entry will appear in the list at the bottom of the screen showing how much time is left in the transfer.
Congratulations! Your file is now on Clear. Use the Secure Shell Client that you downloaded with the Secure File Transfer Client (found in your Start menu under SSH Secure Shell) to connect to Clear.
- Follow the instructions for submitting from the Clear network.
