- NOTE: For TUX access, current Tux users would probably use their Drexel username@drexel.edu , and not just their Drexel username. For example, if your Drexel userid was mjg88, you would use mjg88@drexel.edu , and not just mjg88. But if you run into issues, then try using only the Drexel username (so only mjg88 in this example).
Written Instructions
- Download and install Cyberduck at https://cyberduck.io
- Open up the Cyberduck application
- Click the "Open Connection" button in the top-left corner
- Type in tux.cs.drexel.edu for server address
- Select the SFTP protocol in the dropdown
- Enter your Drexel username and password.
NOTE:
For TUX access,
Current Tux users would probably use their Drexel username@drexel.edu ,
and not just their Drexel username.
So in the screenshot below, the "Username" filed would say...
mjg88@drexel.edu
and not just...
mjg88
But if you run into issues,
then try using only the Drexel username (so only mjg88 in example below).
- You now have access to your Tux via CyberDuck GUI
Additional Tips
- From here, you can do actions like drag-and-drop onto your local desktop
- Be careful dragging files to locations that have a file with the same name. Determine if you want to overwrite the file.
- You can drag-and-drop from your local desktop to a directory on Tux as well
- When you delete files on Tux, it is only removed from the Tux directory. Your local copy is still preserved.
- Files can be edited right out of Tux. Right-click the file > Edit With > Select BBEdit
- If you want to set the default editor to BBEdit. In the top-left corner, go to Cyberduck > Preferences... > In the pop-up, select Editor tab > Select dropdown and change to BBEdit.
