First steps

Interested in exozyme? First, join our Matrix space and familiarize yourself with our community. After a week of being active on Matrix, you'll be eligible to become an exozyme member, which gives you an account on our server.

To become a member, send an email to root@this domain name (optionally using GPG) and introduce yourself, what you plan to use your account for, your desired username, display name, and SSH public key. We'll send you a reply after your account is created.

Logging in

Now, try logging into our server using SSH. First off, passwords! The file ~/password contains your temporary password, but you should set a new password using the command passwd. To change your account details like your email address or shell, use the command moduser. We also provide remote desktop.

You can install command-line software with Nix or Distrobox. For hosting websites, check out this guide. If you want to run an extremely resource-intensive program, please let us know on Matrix first. Also, please don't torrent on exozyme.
