Comment on SDF EU takeover?

  Thanks for the info. I’m not on EU either. I’ve logged in from TTY.sdf.org and been connected to several different servers, with the same results. I would have thought com was accessible, given various things i’ve read. I guess they’ve tightened up security to the excent that you can’t use com until validated.

  The documentation, though copious, is pretty fragmented and sometimes decades out of date. I’ve found it really challenging to figure out how to do things, and what things i’m allowed to do. I can’t even chmod my ssh folder so I can put in my public keys. Psh, or whatever the unvalidated user shell is called, is extremely limited. Running commands it says i’m explicitly allowed to use frequently redirects to a different command or gives an error. I wish it would just redirect to something that says unvalidated users don’t have access so i’d know what’s going on. I’m not new to Unix clis, but it’s rather confusing anyway. Anyway, it’s nof turning out to be the welcoming atmosphere I expected from the available documentation, mostly because i’m blocked from communicating with anyone on the platform.
