10 | <h1>XVM — Virtual Servers for MIT </h1> |
---|
11 | |
---|
12 | <p><strong>xvm.mit.edu</strong> is a virtualization service for the |
---|
13 | MIT community. We offer <strong>virtual machines</strong>—your |
---|
14 | own complete system on which you can start from our <strong>two-minute |
---|
15 | Debian</strong> Linux auto-install or install the operating |
---|
16 | <strong>system of your choice</strong>. The service is <strong>free |
---|
17 | to any Athena account holder</strong>. </p> |
---|
18 | |
---|
19 | <p>If you're a member of the MIT community, go <a |
---|
20 | href="https://xvm.mit.edu/"><strong>try out the service</strong> |
---|
21 | now</a>. You'll need an <a href="http://ca.mit.edu/">MIT personal |
---|
22 | certificate</a>.</p> |
---|
23 | |
---|
24 | <p>The XVM code base is also forthcoming as a <strong>free |
---|
25 | software</strong> project. We've been too lazy to put in a COPYING |
---|
26 | file yet, but you can look at our source in <a |
---|
27 | href="https://xvm.mit.edu:1111/">our Subversion repo</a>. If you're |
---|
28 | interested in using <strong>XVM outside MIT</strong>, we'd be happy to |
---|
29 | help you make it work in your environment; mail us at |
---|
30 | <tt>xvm@mit.edu</tt>.</p> |
---|
31 | |
---|
32 | <p>xvm.mit.edu is provided by <a href="http://sipb.mit.edu/">SIPB</a>, |
---|
33 | the <strong>student computing group</strong> at MIT, with generous |
---|
34 | funding from <a href="http://web.mit.edu/ist/">IS&T</a>. Like all |
---|
35 | SIPB projects, we are independently run by our own team of volunteers, |
---|
36 | and we welcome new contributors.</p> |
