The School of Mathematics has computer workstations in offices and in labs for individuals to log in to. Machines dedicated to remote access and computations are also available.
Math classrom lab reservations can be made with Jan Minette.
Undergrad students with accounts can use VinH 314 and 5, while graduate students or faculty can use all department labs. Access to 270d and 314 is available 24 hours/day with a door code received with your account sheet.
Use a secure shell (ssh) or NX Client to connect remotely to computers.
To see installed software, run the command yum list or yum info.
Hostnames and hardware specifications of lab computers of the School of Mathematics are listed below. Hosts listed are part of the domain math.umn.edu which means gamma's fully qualified hostname is gamma.math.umn.edu.

For remote access only. See our ssh guide.
Use these machines for quick file access, or checking mail.
For long running jobs use computation servers.
ash.math.umn.edu
birch.math.umn.edu
Simulations that require more memory, or to run for a long time can use the compute servers. These machines are for research use only. See SSH, NX Client, Computation Tips guides.
Use ssh page for remote access for a terminal session, file transfer or even a remote desktop using NX Client. See the computation tips page for techniques for controlling jobs.
