Requests are normally processed within 2 business days. In case of delays, please contact the Infrastructure Team.

Email alias

If you want to associate yourself with Sugar Labs or you are a Sugar Labs member, it is possible to obtain an email address in the form username@sugarlabs.org. Mail addressed to this address will be simply forwarded to another email account designated by you.

Send a request to the RT administrative contact postmaster @ sugarlabs . org, specifying:

• Your desired username
• Where you wish your email forwarded to

Shell account

This option is for experienced users and developers, you will get a shell account on people.sugarlabs.org server.

Fill up the following template and send it by email to sysadmin @ sugarlabs . org:

<intended purpose of account> (cc your sponsors, if any)

Username: <[a-z]+>
First: <your first name(s)>
Last: <your last name(s)>
Email: <desired forwarding email destination for USERNAME@sugarlabs.org>

<public ssh key(s), one per line. don't attach, paste with word-wrapping disabled>

• Preferably sign your request with a GPG key uploaded to public keyservers and signed by at least another Sugar Labs member.
• Accurately describe the intended purpose of your shell account. Insufficiently justified requests will be delayed by the sysadmins to request further details.

Important
Please read the shell account rules and details before using your account
