Shell creation problems.

Postby Alt on Thu Apr 13, 2006 5:42 am

Hi, i'm having a small problem. A few months ago I was using a shell from this provider for learning purposes, along with eggdrop use. Eventually I ended up setting up my own linux system so the shell fell into disuse. However, I gave that spare computer away and wish to use another shell for again, learning and some recreational use. Sadly the shell I used is I believe gone. It was on the falcon server. It was probally long de-activated from being inactive but I wish to get a new account possibly on the Infinity server since its accepting new users. I didnt know the policy on this so I didnt know if I should create a new account using the creation form. Also I already had the post requirement at the time and was a good proper user who never misused the service. Again, I didnt know the policy of if I need the new requirement of having to be a regular in the IRC chatroom or such. So here is the deal, does anyone know exactly what I should be doing? There isnt a contact email to directly speak with an admin about this so a forum post will have to do.

Can I get my account reactivated and moved to a new server?
Do I need to reapply via the signup form?
Do I need to be an IRC regular by the new guidelines?

What exactly do I do? Also. I wanted to address another problem. I checked out the new signup sheat as I was looking around the website and found some questions that you really cant answers to on the site anymore. Questions like "Are you allowed to run any sort of server daemon (ie. httpd, ircd, irc services, shoutcast server, teamspeak, ventrilo, etc)?" and the such. Of course i'm sure you cant but I know some users would have a problem with that. I guess this is to encourage people to ask in the IRC room or the forums? Sorry for the long post buy hey, I had the time Smile

Sure thing. I'm a long time IRC user so hanging out in an IRC room is fine with me. Especially with some intelligent people.


oops, I really appreciate the recreation of the shell but I went and forgot my password to it, heh. Could I possibly get that reset? Also, the new shell is on infinity.phoenix-hosting.org correct?

For password reset you have to ask an admin to do it. We'll have to wait for the user control script that Tim is still working on. Laughing So the mods can add/delete/edit users in the future too, i hope. And yes, use the hostname infinity.phoenix-hosting.org .

I recommend checking the email account you used to signup to the forums with Wink

I did and tried the password I was given original. Unfortunately I must have changed it some time between when I was used then, and the time the account went inactive.
