====== Connecting to a Linux computer using SSH from a Mac computer (text mode interface) ======

Any Mac computer running MacOS X brings everything you need to connect to a Linux computer using SSH. The //ssh// command is built in and can be run from the //Terminal// application.

First, open **Finder** and navigate to your //Applications// folder, look for the sub-folder //Utilities// and open it by double-click:

{{:services:remote-access:mac_ssh_terminal_1.png|}}

In the folder //Utilities//, search for the //Terminal// application and double-click it:

{{:services:remote-access:mac_ssh_terminal_2.png|}}

This should open a terminal window. In the terminal window, type:

ssh **username**@login.physik.fu-berlin.de, followed by pressing <ENTER> and your password and <ENTER>. If asked whether you want to trust the remote computer, type "yes" and press <ENTER>:

{{:services:remote-access:mac_ssh_terminal_3.png|}}

You're now logged in to the primary login computer at the Physics department.
