Welcome to the
If you are taking a UNIX/Linux course you must download the secure software to
use from home to connect to the GCC UNIX/Linux system for your exercises. Use
either the Putty link below or the SSH link below. Either one is satisfactory
for the course, the interfaces are slightly different but once you get
connected to the gnix.gc.maricopa.edu server there is no difference.
Now you will want to begin reading the course guide you downloaded
from below and begin the course using your course guide and the secure shell
software you downloaded. The course guide also has tips on how to log in from
work or home or from another Unix/Linux system you may be using.
DOWNLOAD the
puTTY self-extracting file for Secure Shell communications with
gnix.gc.maricopa.edu. This link includes instructions for installing puTTY.
DOWNLOAD the SecureShell
self-extracting file for Secure Shell communications with gnix.gc.maricopa.edu.
Instructions for installing SSH are in the course guides for all CIS126 courses.
NOTE: The SecureShell download is over 5 MB! The puTTy
download is less than 500 KB.
