Free Server Migration done - request access here
61  2K+ {{tagitem.name}}
We're moving to a new home.
To keep things running smoothly and securely, shell access will be restricted on the new server to a specific set of people. This change allows us to launch a faster IRC bouncer provisioning system and better protect the community from abuse.
Simply open a ticket to request free shell access. Do not remove your existing shell!
Thanks for sticking with us!
woohoo \o/ back and better :) Thanks a million. Some details probably being worked on (man), others already improved (rsync finds a 'clean shell' i.e. no strings like motd on non-interactive shells). Newer binaries too (but I hadn't been able to log in for a long time...) - great job! P.S.: my life doesn't depend on it, but if there was a system wide copy of lynx, I'd also use it :)

@alooshu In an earlier reply in this thread, I wrote that Lynx was missing on the new server. They immediately installed it.

Just wanted to thank you for bringing free shell back and solving my login problems. I suggest you creating a donation link so that free server users can donate if they wish. Could help cover some of the expenses and support the work you do to keep it free.
