Welcome to Blinkenshell!

Hi there, welcome to Blinkenshell.org! This is a free UNIX shell account service. I provide shell access on my server to any user for free, provided that they show a good will and follow the rules.

The service is intended to create a community with users who are curious and likes to learn new stuff about computers in general. This is a great place to be if you are looking for somewhere to learn about ["UNIX"], learn about programming/scripting or if you just want to use [:Info/IRC:IRC]. You can also create advanced websites with dynamic content and database storage.

The server is located in my basement and is not intended for any commercial use. It doesn't cost anything to use and does not provide any guaranteed uptime, availability, quality of service or any warranty.

If you want to sign up for an account, take a look at the [:Info/Signup:Signup Info].

This website is based on MoinMoin wiki engine. You can edit the contents of the pages by creating a wiki user (a wiki user is not the same thing as a system account, you can not SSH to the server with this account.)

If you have any questions, or if you are in the signup process, please come and [:Info/IRC:Chat with us]!
