Connecting to the SLAC FastX test instance

 

When you launch the FastX client application for the first time, you will see an empty connection window. Click on the "+" icon to connect to our test server. The hostname of the server is "fastx-test.slac.stanford.edu". Be sure to enter your Unix username and you will also need to specify the sci parameter "/opt/fastx/bin/fastx2_sci”

Save these connection settings. You will then be prompted for your Unix password (unless you already have a kerberos ticket). A session window will then open that will track your remote app sessions. Click the "+" icon on this window to launch a new remote app. We recommend you begin by running an xterm on your remote system where you will be running your apps. For example "xterm e rhel664.slac.stanford.edu"
