Remote Access to Python from GNU/Linux

You are not logged in.
Please Log In for full access to the web site.
Note that this link will take you to an external site (https://shimmer.mit.edu) to authenticate, and then you will be redirected back to this page.

You can use the Athena dialup machine at athena.dialup.mit.edu to access your Athena account (and Python) via ssh (with X-forwarding enabled):

$ ssh -X USERNAME@athena.dialup.mit.edu

where USERNAME is your Athena username. Log in with your Athena password. After logging in, run the command:

$ add -f 6.01

and then you can start the proper version of Python by running python3.
