===== Creating an account =====

Visit https://vpn.soe.ucsc.edu/ and follow the instructions on the page to reset your password for your UCSC account (//username//@ucsc.edu).
After the password is (re)set, you should be able to 
<code>
ssh username@campusrocks.cse.ucsc.edu
</code>

At your first login,  a public/private keypair is generated. Some information about public key authentication can be found [[http://sial.org/howto/openssh/publickey-auth/|here]].
