[08] WHAT MACHINE DO I LOG INTO FOR SHELL ACCESS?  HOW MANY CONCURRENT LOGINS?

     If you are an SDF-EU member there is currently only one host which
     is 'odin.sdfeu.org' or just 'sdfeu.org'.  This is due to the very 
     small userbase and usage.  In the future more servers will be
     added to 'sdfeu.org' as needed.

     If you are an SDF member, please keep reading.
     You may use the following aliases to access SDF:

     telnet/ssh:       tty.sdf.org
     ftp/sftp/scp:     ftp.sdf.org

     Historically you would login to 'sdf.lonestar.org' .. however, SDF
     has grown so much, we've got a number of machines available all sharing
     the same disks.  So, no matter what machine you login to, the same
     files, mail and user programs show up.  If you are at a library or
     school which only allows the use of a web browser, you might be 
     able to use a java applet ssh client at http://sdf.org/ssh

     Here is a quick list of machines available for public access:

     --------------------------------------------------------------------
     FQDN (hostname)         Hardware Configuration    Membership Access
     --------------------------------------------------------------------
     ol.sdf.org              AMD64 4GB RAM 4TB DISK    NONE (fileserver)
     mx.sdf.org              AMD64 4GB RAM NFS client  NONE (mail server)
     sdf.lonestar.org        AMD64 4GB RAM NFS client  general access
     otaku.sdf.org           AMD64 4GB RAM NFS client  general access
     ukato.sdf.org           AMD64 4GB RAM NFS client  JAVA server
     miku.sdf.org            AMD64 4GB RAM NFS client  motd.org, toobnix.org
     faeroes.sdf.org         AMD64 4GB RAM NFS client  general access
     norge.sdf.org           AMD64 4GB RAM NFS client  VHOST member access
     bjork.sdf.org           ALPHA 2GB RAM NFS client  NONE (development)
     sverige.sdf.org         AMD64 4GB RAM NFS client  MetaARPA only
     iceland.sdf.org         AMD64 4GB RAM NFS client  MetaARPA only
     --------------------------------------------------------------------
 
     You may not login to ol.sdf.org.      It is a fileserver. ('maint' is ok)
     You may not login to mx.sdf.org.      It is a fileserver.
     You may not login to bjork.sdf.org.   It is for development.

     HOW MANY CONCURRENT LOGINS CAN I HAVE?

     You can login as many times as you need within reason.  Meaning, if
     you need to login 10 times to get your code working, go for it! 

     ARE THERE ANY SSH SERVERS RUNNING ON NON-STANDARD PORTS?

     MetaARPA members may connect via SSH on ports 22, 23, 53, 110, 143, 
     and 993 to meta.sdf.org.  These instances of the SSH server support
     TCP Tunneling and X11 Forwarding.  Both iceland and sverige run 
     https on port 443, but sdf, otaku, ukato, faeroes and miku support
     tunnelling on ports 53, 110, 143 and 443.

     SDF-EU (sdf-eu.org) run instances of the SSH server on ports 465, 587,
     995, 996 1025, 8080 and 7070 which support TCP Tunneling and X11 
     Forwarding.  Port 22 is of course available, but does not support Meta-
     ARPA features.
