# Computing on Jean-Zay at IDRIS
2+
3+
[IDRIS](http://www.idris.fr/docs/idris/missions)
4+
is the national computing center of the CNRS.
5+
Most information on the Jean-Zay machine can be found
6+
on the [Jean-Zay webpage at IDRIS](http://www.idris.fr/docs/jean-zay/nouvel-utilisateur/).
7+
The following gives only a brief summary of useful commands and procedures.
8+
9+
## Getting an account
10+
11+
Resources on the machine can be obtained by submitting a project to [eDARI](https://www.edari.fr/).
12+
13+
A new account must be associated to one or more existing projects that received a resource allocation.
14+
Usually, new users join an existing project in IGE.
15+
This is achived by following the procedure described in the
16+
[eDARI portal](https://www.edari.fr/documentation/index.php/Documentation_compl%C3%A8te#ModalitesAccesCalculateurs).
17+
This requires filling forms with several information
18+
(personnal information, IP adresses of connections,...),
19+
and getting approved by the IGE direction and IT department.
20+
21+
A good practice is to provide at least two IP adresses to secure the connections,
22+
as for instance, the IP address of your personnal desktop,
23+
and at least one secured IGE server (one which is always alive).
24+
25+
## Connecting to Jean-Zay
26+
27+
You can only connect from one of the IP address provided to IDRIS.
28+
29+
To connect by SSH through an IGE proxy server,
30+
edit the SSH configuration file (`~/.ssh/config`) to include:
31+
32+
```
33+
Host ige-proxy
34+
HostName address_of_the_IGE_proxy
35+
User your_IGE_user_name
36+
37+
Host jean-zay
38+
ProxyJump ige-proxy
39+
HostName jean-zay.idris.fr
40+
User your_IDRIS_user_name
41+
```
42+
43+
You can then connect to Jean-Zay with the command:
44+
45+
```
46+
ssh jean-zay
47+
```
48+
49+
Then you can share SSH keys (with the proxy and jean-zay)
50+
to avoid giving your password at each connection.
