About

This is meant to become a list of free shell providers whose features and TOS may be interesting for FlightGear-related efforts (such as for example setting up additional multiplayer servers).

This list should be regularly updated.

Please note that you'll normally only be interested in this list if you do have previous experience working in a linux shell environment and already know how to compile source code.

Also, during registration all services will require varying degrees of information about the nature of the work you intend to do with the shell account, so be prepared to provide a short introduction about FlightGear.

Boilerplate Application
