Creating an Icon on Mac OS/X

Create a icon to start the SokweDB VPN on your Microsoft Windows desktop with the following procedure:

• Open a terminal window
• Supply your agreed upon VPN login name by typing the following into the terminal window, changing "YOU" to your (case sensitive) VPN login name:

MYLOGIN=YOU

• Press the "Enter" key to get a new line in the terminal window
• Paste the following into the terminal window and press the "Enter" key:

cat - >~/Desktop/SokweDB_VPN <<EOF
#!/bin/sh
ssh -L 5432:sokwe-dbs.postgres.database.azure.com:5432 -l ${MYLOGIN} sokwe.janegoodall.org
EOF
chmod a+x ~/Desktop/SokweDB_VPN

An icon with the name SokweDB_VPN should now appear on your desktop.

• Close the terminal program
