Hello, should we use our tequila identifiers to sign into the ubuntu VM or is there a specific password for this course?

I've tried using my identifiers but I can't seem to open a session once I've selected the IC-CO-IN-SC image.
Have a nice day,

Nathan Duchesne

Hi Nathan,

The tequila identifiers should work. I will email the sys admins to see what's going on.

Cheers,

Katerina

Dear Nathan,

As Prof. Argyraki said, you should use your gaspar credentials to login.

The prompt is a little bit slow on accepting shifts and caps locks so verify that the keyboard and the caps lock/shift/control matches your expectation.

Right-clicking on the password bar allows you to see the entered password through "show text". Alternatively you can write your password in a local text editor and copy paste it.

Best,
Periklis

Nathan, 

Could you please confirm that you were able to start the VM? 

Thanks,

It works now! I had already used my Gaspar username and password earlier today to sign up on the website, but once I clicked on the specific VM, it asked for another username and password. This time it worked without this additional step, meaning no more passwords were required once I was signed in on the website, so it seems to be fixed. Thanks a lot!

However, it now asks for a password to turn it off..

Thanks for the reply! If you are prompted again for a password while trying to start the VM, please send a screenshot -- just like the one you did. That way we can show the problem more clearly to the sysadmins.

I experience the exact same issue. The other VMs automatically connect, however the IC CO IN SC asks my credentials, and when I enter them they are rejected.

40 minutes later I decided to give it another try and it worked as well (it did not ask my credentials either).

Dear Alexis,

When you had issues with putting the password (unlocking the session, which is normally required after some inactivity period or if you lock the session), can you please confirm: did you verified through "Show text" that the password is typed correctly?

Yes I did.
I even copy pasted it from outside the VM.

Hello,

I have the same issue, I cannot access the VM because my personal login and password are not valid (I'm sure that I enter them correctly). I tried to do the lab on my own machine but I cannot use the command "wireshark", it says "command not found". I tried installing wireshark but nothing has changed.

Best regards,
Robin

Dear Nathan,

Do not try to turn off the machine--our accounts don't have such access rights. Instead, just log out or close the browser window.

Best,
