 + 
 +Users must be granted access to get to the archival data. Access can be granted by Arno Schoenmakers or the RO admins (roadmin@astron.nl). 
 + 
 +To get access, a public ssh key, generated on your own system is needed; we recommend using a passphrase-less key. You can generate ssh-keys with the tool ''ssh-keygen''. 
 + 
 +The public key (usually the content of the file $''HOME/.ssh/id_rsa.pub'' or ''id_dsa.pub'' created by ssh-keygen) should be mailed to us, so we can add it to the archive system. This key usually looks something like this:<code> 
 +ssh-dss AAAAB3NzaC1kc3MAAACBALnrC54bjck4jJZ2mhnifrZKvmcvmESyS7k9xrIamuiCEWxgUbMF6bhPYRPdbskLyUsNlc

 + dsa-key-20100104 
 + 
 +</code> 
 + 
 +After we have done that, you should try connecting to the archive host with:<code> 
 +ssh inspect@wsrtarchive.astron.nl uptime 
 +</code> 
 +If this works without providing a password or passphrase, ''getms'' will also work.
