You can reach the website at http://templarshells.mine.nu Services include access to linux programs, telnet, ssh, nslookup, nmap etc. I also provide bespoke software development services in Perl. Thanks, Martin Sanders (System Administrator). I am really trying not to be completely negative ... I strongly believe that it does no harm at all for people to learn about shell (i.e. command line) access to systems, because it gives them some insight into how things really work. However, I do think the word FREE is a little out of place in the text, because when you get to the site you will see: "Access to the Templar Server is via Ssh (Secure Shell). Ssh is a connectivity tool which encrypts all traffic sent over a TCP/IP network. For those of you using Windows, you can download an Ssh client called Putty at www.putty.nl. PAGE UNDER CONSTRUCTION - PAYPAL BEING SETUP. PLEASE RETURN IN 24 HOURS." The first part is good - providing a reasonably secure mode of access. The second part in capitals is rather incompatible with the word FREE in the blurb. I also noticed that the site says: "The Templar Server runs on the Linux Operating System, providing high speed Broadband Shell Accounts." I hope the broadband supplier is happy (in their T & C's) about the provsion of what appears to be a commercial service over what seems from material on the site to be a domestic connection.
