Blinkenshell - Free UNIX Shell Accounts!

Translations: Français - Svenska - Deutsch - Serbian - Suomi - Pусский язык - Nederlands - Español - Italiano

Welcome to Blinkenshell! This is a free UNIX shell provider. Here you can get your own personal shell account on a Linux server for free! The only requirements is that you actively participate in our community and follow the rules.

Blinkenshell is a mature shell provider, the service has been online since 2006 and there are several hundred members. We're still accepting new members, if you're interested in signing up for an account take a look at the Signup info.

Blinkenshell is built around an online community with friendly and helpful users. This is a great place to be if you are looking for somewhere to learn more about UNIX, networking, programming or meet other people with similar interests as yours. Many use their shell accounts to run an always-online IRC client (screened irssi) or host a webpage for example. Read about some other common usage scenarios.

Keep in mind that 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. This is a hobby project!
