Remote Access

Off-campus access to RCC resources is dependent on MCW-IS standard remote access methods. For more information on remote work, see Remote Work Guide. RCC resources are available remotely using Citrix.

Citrix

Citrix is the recommended method of remote access to RCC resources. Citrix is available off-campus using MFA for login.

PuTTY is a well-documented terminal application used for SSH access to Linux systems. Contact the MCW-IS help desk to request PuTTY for your Citrix account.

To access PuTTY, first login to Citrix. From the Citrix home page, select Admin Tools, then select PuTTY.
