I try to describe the way that I got access to the VM:

1. You got a got a mail with a TUMonline-Pincode

• Open the browser at https://campus.tum.de/
• Click on PIN-Code einlösen (Mitarbeitende)
• Login with the credentials they sent you
• Change the password in the webui

2. Login at https://tum.eduvpn.lrz.de/ with the username from the mail & the password that you set

3. Create and download a openvpn config file

• Go to Einstellungen
• Expand the "weiter" under "Erstellen"
• Select MVN Split-Tunnel (Standard)
• Give it a name
• Click on "Erstellen und Herunterladen"

4. Add a openvpn script

It could look like this:

#!/bin/bash

# Connect to the TUM eduvpn
# For more details see: https://doku.lrz.de/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=87425299
sudo openvpn --verb 3 --config ${PATH_TO_CONFIG_FILE}

(with the path to the file that you downloaded right now).

6. Run the script

7. Try to access the VM

• you can access it with root and the password that hugo shared by mail

ssh root@138.246.225.182

8. Create your own account and put it into the docker & sudo group

adduser fancynewuser
adduser fancynewuser docker
adduser fancynewuser sudo

9. Optional: Switch user and upload your public key

# on the VM
su fancyuser
cd ~
mkdir .ssh

# on your local computer
scp ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub fancyuser@138.246.225.182:/home/fancyuser/.ssh/authorized_keys

An alternative way to access (but you still need a VPN for this):

• Go to the following website: https://vm.lrz.de/
• Click on "vSphere Client"
• Log in with the credentials of the functional account I shared per email
• The VM riesgos should be visible once you log in. Otherwise, you can search for it at the search bar on the top left, by typing "riesgos"
• You should be able to launch the VM and log in as root (or any) user
