GET A FREE SHELL ACCOUNT ONLINE.
A shell is an utility from where you can access Linux/*Nix servers from any where and execute the commands/scripts etc.
This post is for the users who are new to linux/Nix and want to feel/work on the Linux without installing on the system. “Rootshell.be“ is free online BSD(Berkeley Software Distribution) server where you can request a shell account and explore your self.
There are so many free shell providers on net but most of the servers/service providers will not give you free account simply, you have to prove your self to them that you are not a spamer and you are really in need of shell account to explore Unix.
Here are some advantages:
- No need to install any unix systems.
- Good for beginers.
Some disadvantages:
- You can work on only limited commands provided by the system administrator.
- Require any SSH clients(such as Putty) and internet connection.
