100webspace.com

i dont think 100webspace gives out shell accounts.

correct me if im wrong though.

they dont give out shell accounts, but you can easily use a php script to passthru() and commands you want and display them in a text box or sometyhing

for what reason do you want a shell account? PM me with full details on what you want it for and I can figure something out :P

i dont think u guys see what im saying. i want to host shells for people to telnet to like the ones that the black show network or hbx has. thanks

If you've got the box yourself, then you just need a static IP from your ISP.

If not, then you'll need to buy/rent a server.

ya, i already set it to static

Then set up an SSH/telnet server on your box.

I've never set one up myself, so the best thing you could probably do is download the one you want, and get a tutorial for your own OS.

Sorry I can't be of more help.

Well any thing helps so thanks. Im running it on a fairly old computer and ive got DSL so im lookin for a way to get it to use a network card. If not ill just buy a newer computer and set it up on there i guess. Thanks Bobby :)

Cant ANYONE help me?

Run FreeBSD or CentOS.

Install the ssh-server package, or preferrably compile it yourself.

Install Apache and PHP.

Create a script that has a username form that submits to this:

<?php
$user=clean_this_up($_POST['user']);
$pass=clean_this_up($_POST['user']);
system("adduser . $user . "-p " . $pass);
?>

Make a method called clean_this_up to make sure no piping or ampersands are used. The script itself is still insecure, but it's a start for you.

THANKS SO MUCH. :D:D:D
