Setup SSH access
In order to deploy RadGrad to a production server such as radgrad2.ics.hawaii.edu, you will generally need to configure ssh access to the radgrad account. Here's how to do it.
Obtain user credentials
RadGrad docker services are deployed using the radgrad account. You need to obtain the password for radgrad on radgrad2.ics.hawaii.edu in order to do this deployment. Contact Philip for details.

In certain situations, you may want to set up ssh port forwarding to create a port on your local machine that acts as if it was the MongoDB port on emilia. To do this, open a new shell, and execute the following command:
The shell will appear to "hang", but that's OK: it just means port forwarding has started. Type control-C to terminate port forwarding.
