<p><b style="color: #FF00FF">Who is running thunix?</b><br>The current system administrators are <a href="/~amcclure">amcclure</a> and <a href="/~ubergeek">ubergeek</a>.</p>
<p><b style="color: #FF00FF">What happened to the old thunix? Why the name change?</b><br>The original machine and founder dissappeared without any warning to anyone, including server staff. For this reason, most things were not backed up, and we needed to obtain a new domain name, and a new set of machines.</p>
<p><b style="color: #FF00FF">I want a new package installed, or I want something changed on Thunix!</b></br>Excellent! We're looking to make this system useful for the community! You can submit a PR or an issue <a href="https://tildegit.org/thunix/ansible">here</a> to request the system change.</p>

<p><b style="color: #FF00FF">I want to run {fill in the blank} server, but I can't seem to access it? </b></br>The only exposed ports to the internet are services as defined in our <a href="https://tildegit.org/thunix/ansible">ansible playbook.</a> If there is a public service you want to see, open an issue, or do a pull request for it, and we'll probably enable it without much question.</p>
<p><b style="color: #FF00FF">That's too hard! Can you just open the port up for this service I have running?</b></br>No. Due to security issues, we cannot. HOWEVER! You can certainly use an <a href="https://duckduckgo.com/?q=ssh+tunnnel">SSH tunnel</a> to access it.</p>
<p><b style="color: #FF00FF">Old thunix did {fill in the blank}, and now it doesn't. Make it work like it used to!</b></br>There was a huge changeover. Maybe we can get something going old thunix had, and maybe not. You can mention it in the IRC channel, and we'll see what we can do.</p>
