 +~~NOTOC~~
 +====== How to setup your free UNIX shell account on SDF ======
  
 +Setting up an account at SDF is quick and easy, but to do so you must connect via an ''ssh'' (Secure Shell) or ''telnet'' client to ''sdf-eu.org'' and login as the ''new'' user. You will be asked a few questions including that you agree to abide by our [[faq:basics04|Acceptable Use Policy]].
 +
 +  * MacOS X users, click here: [[ssh://new@sdf-eu.org]]
 +  * Microsoft Windows users may use our Java SSH client: [[https://sdfeu.org/ssh]]
 +  * Linux/UNIX users can type ''ssh new@sdf-eu.org'' at their shell prompts. 
 +  * For Microsoft Windows users we highly recommend the free SSH client [[http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/download.html|putty]].
 +
