This is the chapter of the MemberManual that describes how to log in to our machines, and provides a brief explanation of what our machines do.
Our Machines
We have several machines, which are hosted at Peer1. Here are brief descriptions of each of the machines you'll need to know about, and what they do.
Machine name |
IP address |
Description |
mire.hcoop.net |
69.90.123.68 |
This is the machine that serves all of our members' websites. Members can log into this machine. |
deleuze.hcoop.net |
69.90.123.67 |
This is our mail server, database server, primary DNS nameserver, and the machine that serves [http://hcoop.net] (when the migration period is complete). Members may not log into this machine. |
For further details on our machines, including the machines that are not listed here, take a look at the NewSystemHardware page.
Logging In
The only machine that you can log into as a member is mire.hcoop.net. Use SSH to log in, by typing the following, where USER is your HCoop username.
ssh USER@mire.hcoop.net
Changing the Default Shell
If you wish to change your login shell, then create a symlink called ~/.loginshell whose target is your shell of choice. Here is one example:
ln -sf /bin/zsh ~/.loginshell
Web Interface for Login
We also have an AJAX SSH service at [http://ssh.hcoop.net/]. This allows you to use a web browser to log into mire, provided that you have a fairly modern web browser.
Password-less Login
Consult the [:/PasswordlessLogin:Password-less Login] subpage for instructions.
Security Restrictions
We have some security restrictions in place on the shell servers. They are documented here: ShellServerSecurityRestrictions.
