On compute server (e.g. elcattivo)

If you used and customized jupyter (notebook/lab before) save your current enviornment first: mv ~/.jupyter ~/.jupyter.v0.

Then simply type the following

tmux new

jupyter-lab --no-browser --port=NNNNN --ip=\*

On your local machine at home

generate a tunnel through ssh:

ssh -L 8888:elcattivo:NNNNN -l user -J geniux.molgen.mpg.de elcattivo

monitor the machine using

htop
htop -u $USER

and point your local browser (firefox) to localhost:8888.

to install the R kernel

run this in an R session:

install.packages("devtools")
devtools::install_github("IRkernel/IRkernel")
IRkernel::installspec()

for more customization

run

jupyter-lab --generate-config

and edit the generated config file.

ssh config

configure ssh with your own .ssh/config file:

Host tunnel
        HostName elcattivo
        User UUUUUUUU
        ProxyJump geniux.molgen.mpg.de
        LocalForward 8888 elcattivo:NNNNN

then it suffices to run ssh tunnel.

htop config

copy the in this dir:

mkdir -p ~/.config/htop
cp htoprc ~/.config/htop/
