Can't download anything on DevCloud

[atuft]

Hello,

I'm logged in to DevCloud and would like to download some files using git clone and wget, but the login node complains that it can't resolve hosts:

wget https://www.google.com
--2022-06-15 02:57:30--  https://www.google.com/
Resolving www.google.com (www.google.com)... failed: Name or service not known.
wget: unable to resolve host address 'www.google.com'

git clone https://github.com/oneapi-src/oneAPI-samples.git
Cloning into 'oneAPI-samples'...
fatal: unable to access 'https://github.com/oneapi-src/oneAPI-samples.git/': Could not resolve host: github.com

It seems I can download when connected to a compute node, so this issue only seems to be on the login node

Hi,

Good day to you.

Thank you for posting in Intel Communities.

For your information, login node uses a lightweight general-purpose processor. Login nodes should not be used for development or execution of programs. It is an interface node that helps to connect or submit jobs to compute nodes.

We request you to use compute nodes to download or clone repositories.

Since your issue is resolved, we are closing this case. If you need any additional information, please post a new question as this thread will no longer be monitored by Intel.

Thanks.

Can I use wget to download resources from my login node?
