If you borrow a laptop from the lab monitor to work on your project during lecture (or at any other time), follow these steps to launch Eclipse from your EECS account:

  - Power on the laptop
  - Select CentOs Linux (or wait a couple of seconds)
  - Click OK and login to AirYork with your Passport York credentials
  - Make sure the eecs-vbox-common-lab virtual machine is selected, and press Start
  - Click on Applications -> Favorites -> Terminal
  - Type **''ssh -X -l <uname> red.eecs.yorku.ca''** replacing **''<uname>''** with your EECS account name. 
  - Say yes if asked if you are sure you want to connect.
  - Enter your EECS password.
  - You are now logged in to your EECS account. You can type **''eclipse &''** to start working as if you are logged in on a desktop machine at the lab.

When finished, follow these steps:

  - Exit Eclipse (don't forget to save)
  - Type exit to log out from your EECS account
  - Click on the top right corner and power off the virtual machine
  - Click on the top right corner again to power off the laptop
