About

This server was set up by me, [:JohanMarcusson:Independence], in the summer of 2006. In the autumn of the same year, public registration opened. Now, the server has been up and running for more than half a year, and things are working great! :)

Before this machine was taken into service, there was an older one that served as shellhost for me and some friends. When I got this new machine, I first opened it up to the same people as before. But I felt that the server and I could handle more users, and that's when I decided to make this a publicly available free shell server. As this seems to work out very good, I intend to keep the server running and adding more services as they are needed until either I myself or the users lose interest in the project. My reasons for running the server is a mix of several things; firstly, I do need/use it myself, I think it's a great way to learn about UNIX, networking etc and I also have some kind of personal need to be of use to others (however weird that may sound :P).

I run this project as a hobby of mine, and I do not intend to make any money on the project. However, donations are very welcome and greatly appreciated. Cash or hardware is good, or anything else you can come up with ;) See [:Info/Donations:Donations].
