RE: HPC, conn remotely, salloc, slurm

Hello again, Alfonso...


I've recently learned that my HPC will absolutely not allow conn remotely since the secure node requires a two-step login process. If I go that route I'll have to use ThinLinc (which I've already got working nicely).


But I'd still like to explore conn remotely with a local network. I have two ARM Macs running Conn: the local computer is running Matlab+Conn and the "server" is running a custom-built conn22v2407 standalone (using the built-in build script on R2024b).


When I try to use conn remotely, I get the following log in my Matlab command window:


>> conn remotely

You can see the associated .qlog folder in the attached .tgz file. Firewalls are disabled on both computers.


Can you give some advice on how to proceed?


I CAN run the full Matlab+Conn on the target/server computer, but I'd really rather not use one of my university licenses on this computer.


Thanks in advance!
