Under the details of Week 1 you should see "Links to Windows SSH clients (Access Matrix from Home)".
Left click one of the clients, and download to your desktop.
If you chose PuTTY you will have downloaded a .exe file (there is no need to install), the others need installation by double-clicking. If you have problems during installation, you may need to right-click and select "Run as administrator".
Double-click the icon that was created. If you chose SSH/SFTP, double-click SSH, there is no need for the SFTP icon so you may as well delete it.
A window will open that asks for connection information.
Replace username with your Matrix/MySeneca username then click "Open".
For SSH, use Host Name matrix.senecacollege.ca, provide your User Name, then click "Connect".
For Bitvise, use Host matrix.senecacollege.ca, provide your Username, then click "Log in".
Enter your password when prompted. You will not see the cursor move but you are indeed entering your password. (Answer "yes" to any questions that you must answer).
You are now connected to the Matrix server. You can work on your assignments or access your files
