When on a UNIX based computer you can connect to another terminal via SSH using this command
ssh -p 22 user@your.ip.address
The -p defines the port, while 22 is the default port for SSH some servers change their port to ward off potential hackers. Make sure you know what the port number is before trying to connect.
