-====== Accessing the cluster ====== 
- 
-=== Setting up Xwin32 === 
-To set up the terminal in Xwin32, follow these steps: 
-  * Window's Start -> X-Win32 2012 -> X-Config 
-  * Under the "Connections" tab, select //"Wizard"// 
-  * **Name:** hugin ( or anything that you want ), **Type:** select //"ssh"// 
-  * **host:** hugin.biac.duke.edu 
-  * **Login:** your username, **Password:** (if you leave this blank, you will be prompted later) 
-  * **Command:** click //"Linux"// 
-  * Click //"Finish"// 
- 
-If your new connection doesn't show up, Click "OK", then re-open X-Config. 
-  * Click your saved configuration, then //"Launch"// 
-  * A terminal window should appear and you may be prompted to enter your password if you didn't originally save it. 
-  * Also, if its your first connection, you'll be prompted to allow connections from hugin. 
- 
-Once the terminal is usable, all graphical forwarding should work.  Type, "nedit" on the command line to test. 
- 
-The next time you want to connect, you can open X-Config and simply "Launch" your saved connection.  If you drag the connection to the "Autostart" folder, it will open automatically when you open X-Win32. 
- 
-=== Access from Mac or Linux === 
-To access the cluster from a Mac or Linux machine, open your terminal window (for Mac usually the program "terminal", Centos is konsole or xterm) and run the following command 
-   ssh -X username@hugin.biac.duke.edu 
-The -X parameter enables the forwarding of graphics.
