The IWCT workstation console allows you to start, stop, and connect to your workstations from any internet connected computer.
Note
Make sure NX Client is installed <install_nx> on the computer you are using and that you can login to the AWS Management Console.
To start and connect to your workstation:
- Go to the IWCT workstation console: http://iwct.dasgizmo.net
- Click login and enter your username and password (or click register if you don't have an account).
- Click the connect button next to a workstation workstation (or the create new workstation button if no workstations are listed).
Use ctrl-alt-f to use nx-client in fullscreen mode. Here are some more handy NX Client keyboard shortcuts.
Note
After login, you'll be prompted for your AWS Access Key. Follow the guide here to get your AWS Access Key <how_to_get_aws_access_key>.
