An experiment in Linux administration

Thanks, now I have access

wuischke · 2009-09-08 20:13:33

I still seem to have trouble receiving mail from the forum. I sent you a message, but in case you have trouble, too, I allowed public display in my profile. (The email is in clear text in enough header files, but surprisingly little spammed.)

re-re-re-sent.

if they really needed a remote access to a arch box (but the latter would be surprising, as it's dead easy to set up ssh server on your own box)

The keyword is probably "remote". Always useful to have a remote shell for testing. I keep a few spread around the globe from Australia to Atlanta to Belgium

if there is still space, i'd be interested too. maybe i can help you, i set up a similar server lately.

That's an excellent idea. I'm interested. Thanks.

Attention users: I've installed apache and activated ~/public_html, just be sure to set proper permissions for your folder (o+x) if you want apache to be able to serve your stuff.

EDIT: never mind, it was a port forwarding issue. Apache now works.

Note: Don't even try to host anything serious here, this server is running on a 4096/512Kbit connection.

Wow apache server! Thanks ZankerH!
But have you considered getting a DNS for your server? You can get a free one from dyndns.org. This way we won't have to remember your ip address.

For the record, I've taken the advice some of you have suggested and gotten a dyndns address, you may now login via yourusername@sshbox.ath.cx

Interested, assuming the 160 GB hasn't been eaten up.

If there is space left I would like a slot. Thanks!

I'm also interested in an account. I'm looking forward to do all my on-line banking from a remote machine which I saw in a forum post!

Not really. I'm lately interested in a stupid yet addictive game and I'd like to have an IRC bot in your host. It establishes a permanent connection but traffic is just a couple of Kb per hour. It also rotates its owns logs which should be no more than 1Mb in size.

If this is tolerable to you, count me in.

Mh...when I try to access my web space, I get a directory listing instead of the expected index.htm file. Could you please have a look at the relevant settings?

Another thing: Would it be possible to get gnupg and python?

okplayer02 · 2009-09-09 08:50:07

Works for me. For some reason, index.htm isn't picked up, you have to rename it to index.html .

Also, installed python and gnupg.

EDIT: for proxy setup see http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/SSH … the_server .

Ah, ok. It works now. :-)

Should you want to change this, have a look at DirectoryIndex.

Haven't got my account details yet, could you resend?

If there's space left, could I have an account? Thanks.

zowki · 2009-09-09 12:37:17

Could you perhaps install gcc and gnu screen? Can't live without those.

Edit: I seem to have a problem with my webpage. I set the public_html directory to permissions 777 but it still says access forbidden when I try to access http://sshbox.ath.cx/~zowki

Note to the OP: if you don't want anymore people asking for accounts, you may want to consider changing your thread title to [solved] or similar.

ZankerH · 2009-09-09 13:12:48

gcc is installed, I can't find gnu screen anywhere in the repos or AUR. Help?

wuischke · 2009-09-09 13:15:25

It's in extra/screen

ZankerH · 2009-09-09 13:17:42

Installed.

Soley · 2009-09-09 13:42:14

I'm interested if you still have space.

Spudgun · 2009-09-09 13:51:54

I'm interested if you still have space :]
