VPN Access

You currently need VPN access to be able to connect to the lab computers

Linux Setup

On an ubuntu-based system, if you cannot ping or ssh to the lab computers then you may need to try the following

  • with the use of systemd, things are bit more difficult because it dynamically adjusts your resolv.conf file
  • if this is the case for you, you will need to move the resolv.conf to another filename if it is a symlink, as that means that systemd is taking care of it
cd /etc
sudo mv resolv.conf resolv.conf.disabled #in case you need to get it later, or want to know what is inside it!
sudo vim resolv.conf

Now add the following to your resolv.conf and save it, then connect to the VPN again

nameserver 127.0.0.53 132.205.1.1 8.8.8.8
options edns0 trust-ad
search concordia.ca net.concordia.ca
