About the Login Service

The Login Service provides a set of Linux machines, the Login Pool, to which members of the U-M community can connect remotely. Reach these machines by connecting to:

login.itd.umich.edu

using SSH (secure shell). You use this single machine name as you log in, and your connection will be routed to whichever machine is available at that moment.

Who Can Use the Service?

The Login Service is part of the standard computing services. Most U-M students, faculty and staff are subscribed to the standard computing services automatically.

If you are unsure whether you have access to the Login Service, see the standard computing services chart or contact the ITS Service Center.
