There are various ways to access Engineering Computing Services (ECS) computers. The method that we recommend is by using SSH, SFTP or Putty. Telnet and FTP are turned off on ALL ECS computers. To download SSH or Putty refer to SSH for Windows or SSH for Mac page. This page also provides you with instruction in using SSH.

  • Access - engsoft.rutgers.edu
                   dsv.rutgers.edu (Nickname for engsoft.rutgers.edu)

Students using computers in ECS are given engsoft.rutgers.edu accounts. With the username and password they can access the DSV Lab, EIT Lab, and also their email accounts by SSH or Putty. However, when you are receiving and sending emails, it should be used as username@soemail.rutgers.edu
