We're in the process of getting all of the usernames finalized, but the general instructions are:

* Open Cyberduck, SSH in via Terminal (on Mac), or via PuTTY (on Windows)
* For Cyberduck:
- ** Click Open Connection
- ** Ensure SFTP is selected
- ** Server: type in sftp://cg3wXX@acsweb.ucsd.edu
- ** Username and Password: type in your COGS 3 username and password. See piazza post about this if you are unsure about this.
- ** Port: If it's not 22 you didn't select SFTP
- ** Click the Connect button
- ** You should see your public_html directory there. This is the folder you will submit to.
* Through SSH:
- ** On your local machine (in terminal or putty), navigate to the directory containing the files you want to add.
- ** Now SCP your files to your COGS 3 account.
- *** Your command will look something like:
```
scp -r cg3wXX@acsweb.ucsd.edu:~/public_html/ DIRECTORY/
```
