While praetor has spent a while designing the network adequately, spent weeks testing, and tested all this internally, it is not without
|
|
it's experimentation (which is good! We want that). While setup is easy, and maintaining a site is virtually adminless. It is not without
|
|
it's quirks. If you want to be apart of something cool, different, and ripe for tinkering....read on.

<li>
|
|
Decide if you want to be a Tier 1 system or a leaf node.
|
|
Reading the <a href="http://uucp.dataforge.tk/~uucp/wiki/index.php?n=Main.NetworkTopology">Network Topology</a>
|
|
wiki article can help you choose. Please be aware being a Tier 1 site requires some dedication.
|
|
</li>
|
|
<br>
|
|
<li>
|
|
If you wish to be a leaf node, you will need to e-mail a Tier 1 site admin of your choosing, and provide them with a name
|
|
for your site, location, end-point address, and ssh public key. Please note, you can only be peered to ONE Tier 1 host, however,
|
|
you may have as many hosts peered with YOU as you wish. Peering with more than one Tier 1 host will result in a slap of the wrist. It's
|
|
currently is not supported, and we will find out. However, if you have an exotic use case and require that, please petition an admin.
|
|
</li>
|
|
<br>
|
|
<li>
|
|
Please be patient for your credentials to be processed. Currently this process is not automated, but eventually will be. You will
|
|
receive an e-mail with your UUCP credentials as well as the public key of the Tier 1 server, which you will need to put in your
|
|
UUCP user's ~/.ssh/authorized_keys file.
|
|
</li>
|
|
<br>
|
|
<li>
|
|
Read the <a href="http://uucp.dataforge.tk/~uucp/wiki/index.php?n=Main.LeafNode">Leaf Node Setup Guide</a> to set up your site.
|
|
If you've been approved to be a Tier 1 system, you will need to follow the
|
|
<a href="http://uucp.dataforge.tk/~uucp/wiki/index.php?n=Main.Tier1">Tier 1 Setup Guide</a>
