FAQ

Shell Account FAQ

Can I run an IRCD on a shell account?
No. IRCD is not permitted on shell accounts. If you need to run an IRC server, please order our dedicated IRCD X package at $45/month.
How quickly is my shell activated?
Instantly. Once payment is confirmed your shell account is automatically provisioned and login details are emailed to you within minutes.
Can I choose UK or USA location?
Yes. You can specify your preferred location when ordering. UK servers are ideal for European IRC networks. USA servers provide lower latency to EFnet and other North American networks.
Do I get root access?
No. Shell accounts provide standard user access appropriate for IRC use. If you need root access, our VPS X package is the right choice.
Can I upgrade my shell later?
Yes. You can upgrade at any time from the client portal. The price difference is prorated for the remainder of your billing period.
What happens if I need more processes than Shell 3 offers?
Contact us for a custom package. We can build something tailored to your specific requirements.
