< p > Once you ' ve logged in , check the path for your desired shell with </ p >
< div class = " code " > $ which fish </ div >
< p > Replacing < code > fish </ code > with the the shell you want . In this case , the path will be < code >/ usr / local / bin / fish </ code >
Now , run :</ p >

< div class = " code " > Shell : / usr / local / bin / fish </ div >
< p > Save and exit . You ' ll need to log out then back in .</ p >
< p class = " q " > How do I change the index page of my site ? </ p >
< p > Because of the way < code > httpd ( 8 ) </ code > is set up , you ' ll need to ask in < code > #institute</code> or send an email to <code>admins@tilde.institute</code></p>
< p class = " q " > Can you install this package for me ? </ p >
< p > As long as it 's in the OpenBSD ports tree, and doesn' t facilitate any potentially malicious behavior ( like < code > nmap </ code > ),
then it ' s probably not a big deal . Either hop on IRC and ask in < code > #institute</code> or send an email to <code>admins@tilde.institute</code></p>
< p class = " q " > How do I authenticate with SMTP remotely ? </ p >
< p > Only local access to SMTP is allowed . However , you can use an SSH tunnel on your machine to send mail .</ p >
< div class = " code " > ssh - nNTL 25 : localhost : 25 tilde . institute </ div >
< p > You won 't need to supply a username or password when sending mail via <code>localhost:25</code> this way, since you' re already authenticated via SSH .</ p >
< p class = " q " > Can you whitelist a port for me in the firewall ? </ p >
2020-05-15 07:18:01 +00:00
< p > Sorry , but this presents too much of a security risk on a public - access system .</ p >
2020-05-15 02:18:09 +00:00
< p class = " q " > Are user services allowed ? </ p >
< p > Generally , yes . If you 're running something that' s using a ton of resources or in some way affecting other users or the general use of the system ,
then we 'll kill it. Just be aware of what you' re running and how it may affect the system and other users .</ p >
< p class = " q " > Are IRC bots allowed ? </ p >
2020-05-15 07:18:01 +00:00
< p > Yes , though there are restrictions on their use on the < code > tilde . chat </ code > IRC network . They should not reside in < code > #meta</code>, instead keep
2020-05-15 02:18:09 +00:00
them in a private channel or in < code > #bots</code>. Bots must also conform to the <a href="https://tildegit.org/tildeverse/rfcs/src/branch/master/rfcs/rfc2.md">bot guidelines listed here</a>.</p>
< p > Don ' t run < code > eggdrop </ code > from tilde . institute . There are legitimate uses for < code > eggdrop </ code > , but separating the people with some kind
of legitimate use from malicious users is tiring . So , no < code > eggdrop </ code >.</ p >
