-You will need access to an Athena machine to run barnowl.  The easiest way to do this would be to SSH into linerva.mit.edu.  On a Debian-based linux distro, open up a terminal and type {{{ssh <username>@linerva.mit.edu}}}.  On Windows, download a SSH client (such as PuTTY, at http://chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/download.html) and install it.  Once you've opened it, type {{{<username>@linerva.mit.edu}}} into the prompt and hit enter.  On a Mac, open Terminal from the Utilities Folder in Applications. Type {{{kinit <username>ATHENA.MIT.EDU && ssh -K <username>@linerva.mit.edu}}} (In all these cases, don't include the angle brackets, just replace <username> with your MIT username).  You will then be prompted for your password.  Enter it, and then carry on with running barnowl!
