You’ll ssh into the head node at first, this is where most of the prep happens.
Use ssh a123b456@hpc-login.wichita.edu with your actual student ID. This should work anywhere on-campus, it’s whitelisted.
When it’s time to crack, use an srun or sbatch to use the actually powerful nodes (we’ll cover that in a following section).
