Public domains
Some of the public domains residing on our servers that might be of particular interest include: casa de adams which deals in antiques, rarities and collectables; linuxselfhosting which will be a resource center when complete; mygoddamnbusiness which is our aptly named development workstation; upshitcreekagain is our corporate shitlist; devilsbox will, one day, cover violins and fiddling; and lastly, thepenguinbox is still undetermined.
User websites
Our users with Unix shell accounts have the capability to host public websites in their /~home directory (folder) and encompanying all the power of MySQL, PHP and CGI. User websites can be accessed via the standard URL format of: http://smithtek.net/~username whereas username is your Unix login preceeded by a tilde (~). To the right are links to several examples of user websites.
Linux migration on schedule
Despite some early setbacks, such as hardware failures and subsequent data loss, we are still on schedule with our initial projection of two years for completion. That's not to say that there isn't still a large amount of unfinished work, however. For one, we still have no functioning mail servers implemented. Those are the most complicated to configure and require extreme caution to provide the security needed so that our mail servers won't become hijacked spam-relayers.
