Jan 2023 Downtime & Account Recovery

+

+ In Jan 2023 we had extended downtime, for more information checkout this link. +
+ The next section will outline the changes that have been made in the last year while the subsequent one will deal with Account Recovery. +

+ +

Service Changes

+

+ As a result of the upgrade/migration/downtime there have been several changes to services. +
+ Some of these are due to security requirements, others are due to some old software being difficult to source, some are because we have worked with UL Wolves to create a new API to automate many processes. +

+

Additions:

+
    +
  • +

    + Account self management page: https://account.skynet.ie +
    + This allows new members to sign up, existing members to change account details (password, contact email, ssh keys), and for password resets. +

    +
  • +
  • +

    + https://gitlab.skynet.ie +
    + Our own Gitlab instance with runners, the cluster config and pipelines are here. +
    + User: $username +
    + Pass: $password +

    +
  • +
  • +

    + https://nextcloud.skynet.ie/ +
    + A replacement for Google Drive, has Open Office, maps and a good email suite. +
    + User: $username or $username@skynet.ie +
    + Pass: $password +

    +
  • +
  • +

    + A Discord Bot to manage the roles of members in our Discord +

    +
  • +
+ +

Changes:

+
    +
  • +

    + Webmail is now available at https://mail.skynet.ie +
    + Still roundcube which should be familiar. +
    + User: $username@skynet.ie +
    + Pass: $password +

    +
  • +
  • +

    + For Thunderbird use these: +
    + User: $username@skynet.ie +
    + Pass: $password +

    +
  • +
  • + SSH now requires an ssh key (can be set in the account page above) +
  • +
  • + SSH access is now on skynet.skynet.ie +
  • +
  • +

    + Personal sites are now accessible as $username.users.skynet.ie as opposed to skynet.ie/~$username +
    + This gives us separation from the core Skynet site. +

    +
  • +
  • + Old home data can be found in /skynet_old/home/$username +
  • +
  • + Old emails (prior to 2023-01-12) can be found in the skynet_old folder in your mail account. +
  • +
+

Email Aliases:

+
    +
  • + We are currently working on associating aliases with the Skynet account they are for. +
  • +
  • + This creates a separate mail account that shares the same password as the base Skynet account. +
  • +
  • + If you believe an alias is missing please get in contact with us (Details are below) +
  • +
  • + Currently, no new aliases are planned, but this may change in the future. +
  • +
+

Removals:

+
    +
  • + Lifetime and 10 year memberships ceased to exist in 2019. +
  • +
  • + Email terminal clients are no longer available. +
  • +
+ + +
