Thanks for the reply. I read the page earlier. It is a very useful page but i could not find the answer of a few questions.

  • it says that 'webservice start' will start the server, bot how long will it remain running?
  • how to upload files to the tools account?
  • how to use pywikibot in tools?
  • how to setup cron?
  • how to access publicly my maintainer account files?

  • Until "webservice stop" or until other unexpected things happen (electricity outage, harddisc dies, code reached that creates severe problems, world collapses, etc.)
  • See section "SSH/SFTP/SCP" on that page
  • How to use pywikibot not in tools, and what's the difference you've experienced so far to tools?
  • Same for the rest of the questions I guess...
