How would you like to start your CentOS 6 shell?

What is this thing?

This is a CentOS Server hosted free of charge to help developers learn more about Linux and its commands.

How is it possible to connect to that CentOS Server?

We use SSH (Secure Shell) to connect you remotely to the CentOS Server. This way you will be able to process commands on the server on your PC remotely through the internet to learn more about CentOS and Linux in general.

Is there another way to connect to this server instead of visiting c1.linuxshell.picrofo.com?

Yes, you may use any other SSH client to connect to the server. We recommend Bitvise SSH Client but you may as well use your favorite client.

A desktop is available for graphics lovers!

Feel free to access your personal desktop by starting VNC server! Learn more about setting up VNC server here.
