To sign up to receive a shell account, you can pursue two methods.  We offer free community based shells, in addition to standard paid shells.

To sign up for a standard paid shell account, click here, to setup a paypal subscribtion in the amount of $5.00 per month.  Once we receive the email of your signup to the paypal subscribtion, we will email the login instructions to the email account used for the payment.

If you would rather receive a free community based shell, then the road is more difficult.  We often get many hundreds of request each month for free shells.  It is important that everyone understand why and when we do honor such requests.  We do not give you a shell *just* because you want one!

We give community based free shells to those users that help out around here!  Updating the website, writing content articles, helping other users, managing the irc channel, etc!  If you interested in helping out, or have any ideas you'd like to see us follow up on, feel free to contact me at This e-mail address is being protected from spambots.

Remember, if you do contact me to request a free community based linux shell account, it is very important that you include what you plan to do to earn your free shell account.
