Launch Cyberduck and click "+" button at the bottom left corner of the window.

It may be possible to import FileZilla settings on first startup. (The location of private key etc. might not be imported.)

A new dialog like above will be shown. There are no "Save" buttons. What you input is automatically saved.

• Choose SFTP(SSH File Transfer Protocol) in the top box.
• Type ccfep.ims.ac.jp as the "Server" name. (You may not need to change port number. 22 is the correct value)
• Please input your user ID (three-character ID assigned by RCCS).
• Select location of the SSH Private Key file. (e.g. ~/.ssh/id_ed25519 など)
• The password field can be left empty. The password will be required later.
• (You can set the nickname of this connection as you like.)

3. Begin Connection

After the completion of the setting, please return to the main windows and choose the created connection.

4. Enter Passphrase of SSH Private Key

You may be asked to enter the passphrase of your private key.
If you enable "Save Password", you will not be asked to enter the password next time.

If a different dialog appears and the connection fails, there may be something wrong with the settings.
Please check the server configuration again.
