Practical infos @ INRIA Saclay

1. Getting there

We are in batiment G of Parc-Club (the A mark in the map below). Click on the image to view it full-size.
From the Le Guichet RER station (bottom right corner): By car: You should find the N118, exit when crossing D128 (Saclay and others), then take Rue Nicolas Appert. More indications from the INRIA site (caution, the same page provide bus stop information which is out of date!).

Accessing the computer systems

Assuming you have an INRIA LDAP account and the proper ssh parameters set up, from outside INRIA, type:
ssh -p220 gw.futurs.inria.fr
You will thus reach the gateway machine. From there, type:
ssh2 machine.futurs.inria.fr
to access a particular machine inside the domain.

Even better (thanks to Spyros Zoupanos): to log on a Gemo machine on which you can run even X applications, do the following:
ssh -p220 gw.futurs.inria.fr
then
klog
(AFS credentials) then
ssh -X -p220 gw.futurs.inria.fr
(yes, the same machine!), then
ssh2 -X machine.futurs.inria.fr

new University (Ecole Doctorale) Web page tells you how. It is very difficult to get somebody to tell you about this Web page.
