Accessing Your Account

Telnet and FTP access to Origin are only available through SSH Secure Shell. You can edit files directly on Origin using the PICO editor. If you prefer, you can create and edit your files using an HTML editor. For training, please check LSU's training portal here. You can then use SSH Secure Shell to upload the files to Origin.

You can contact Library Systems to download SSH Secure Shell.  The Libraries have a site license for SSH Secure Shell which allows use on your home computer. If you wish to download SSH Secure Shell from home, you will be prompted for a logon and password. Contact the Unix Administrator for the current logon and password.
