Unauthorized use of this system may subject you to criminal prosecution and penalties. To find out if the dataset you are interested in is already on KDC02, consult the Kellogg Research Support Data page. If your research requires access to one or more existing datasets, or you require a new dataset that doesn't exist yet on KAP02, please contact Kellogg Research Support.
An ssh client will usually give you the option of working either with a point-and-click graphical interface or through a plain-text command line interface. Which ssh client you use depends on whether you are connecting from a Windows or a Mac computer. Most ssh clients come with file transfer capability built into them. With FastX, however, you will need to install and use a separate program in order to move files to and from the KLC servers. In general, we suggest becoming comfortable making ssh connections and using the command line, at least occasionally. Although point-and-click interfaces are convenient and intuitive, relying on graphical interfaces will present challenges to the future reproducibility of your work.

After you log in with your NetID and password, click the "Launch Session" button, and then select the application you want to run. By default, the sessions you start through the FastX web client will persist indefinitely - until either you terminate the session or the server is restarted. Notice in the example above, we have previously defined several user sessions. Some connect to the KLC load balancer while others connect to specific nodes. Still others connect to different sessions, such as WRDS.
Alternatively, you can use FastX as a simple way to get a graphical interface. With FastX, you could open Stata on KLC directly through your web browser, for example, and the experience would be much like running Stata on your personal computer. To navigate through the Ribbon, use standard browser navigation keys. The Kellogg SQL Database Server offers an enterprise-level Microsoft SQL Server database engine for storing and querying vast amounts of structured relational data. You have two basic choices for how to connect to a remote server such as KLC. We are dedicated to providing accessible, high-quality education to enrich our community and the lives of individual learners.

Kellogg Windows computers do not come with a pre-installed ssh client. So you will need to choose one and install it yourself. Research Support staff like to use MobaXterm, which has a very good free version. Because neither Research Support nor KIS can support the MobaXterm application, you should consider purchasing their pro version in order to access technical support. Other popular ssh clients include SecureCRT, PuTTY, and Cygwin.
So FastX is a wise choice if you want a graphical interface. If you need to find a session you launched previously, you can find it on the My Sessions tab, but you must be logged on to the same KLC node where that session was launched! Therefore, we advise you to remember the specific node you are on if you intend to run very long jobs on KLC. We also advise you to Terminate sessions when you are done with your session.
The Kellogg Database Server is available to all Kellogg researchers (faculty, PhD students, post-docs). Kellogg researchers can request access to KDC02 by emailing Kellogg Research Support. FastX is relatively fast compared to other X11 tools.
If you work on remote servers regularly, you will find it convenient to save and label a set of commonly used sessions. It’s been nearly two full years since the launch of the Michigan Reconnect program began providing free in-district tuition to students age 25 and older without a college degree. Connections to KDC02 via WiFi or off-campus networks using these software installed on your personal computer require aconnection to the NU VPN. Getting a FastX graphical interface to a KLC server is as simple as putting your web browser to one of these server addresses. You may be trying to access this site from a secured browser on the server. The programs and data stored on this system are licensed to or are the property of Infosys Limited.
It’s hard to believe it, but the current incarnation of Kellogg Community College’s Bruin mascot Blaze turned 25 this September!
