Free server is online / xShellz

Thanks everyone for the wait. We have recovered free server and it's now working with full capacity.

[IMPORTANT NOTE] Any users, which have used ssh keys, should re-attach those via xPanel. Simply detach current ssh key, and attach it again.
Also if you can't connect on free server, use some of these hostnames: ca1.shell.xshellz.com or ca2.shell.xshellz.com or ca3.shell.xshellz.com.

The system was reinstalled and key changed, so update it on your side, mostly in known_hosts file.

Thanks for understanding and have a nice day.

-xShellz Team.

how to delete my shell

You can wait for it to expire or use xPanel's format function.

What does it mean when free shell expires and is deleted? Is the home directory destroyed? My understanding is it is also forbidden to write a program in the xshellz free account itself that presses "Keep Shell" button for us regularly?

That is correct, when shell fully expires, your files are removed. From the moment your shell is disapproved (which means you havent pressed keep shell button) you have 3 months to reactivate it again with your files being intact, after that period it's simply expired and removed (with all your files).

You are not allowed to automate keep shell process, because you will be auto banned.

After expiration, during the 3 month grace period you described, will cron jobs still run?

cparke Sep 07 2023

no, they won't run.

Staff StephenS Sep 07 2023

Do we get an email notification about the upcoming expiration or that the shell just expired?
