Toolserver:User servers

To work on the Toolserver, you generally have to log in via SSH.

The Toolserver currently has two login servers, which is where you should normally log in to run tools:


 * nightshade: original login server, running Linux
 * willow: new login server, running Solaris

There is also a user-accessible web server: wolfsbane. wolfsbane is only to be used for debugging CGI scripts and viewing web logs.

Other than operating system, there is no difference between the two servers; you can use whichever you prefer. Users' home directories are shared between all user-space Toolserver machines, including these.

Previously users were encouraged to use the alias login.toolserver.org. This has been deprecated.
