Please note that it needs a bit of time +until this information is synced with all developer-accessible machines. +You should be able to login into debian.org machines after about 30-60 +minutes. If you applied for Debian Developer with uploading rights, +you should be able to upload packages already. + +Email sent to <__LOGIN__@debian.org> will be forwarded to <__EMAIL__>, +to change this visit . +The Debian mail setup allows various per-user settings, like enabling +greylisting, sender-verify-callouts and per-user dns blocklists. +Please refer to on how to change +these settings. Some may also be exposed via the web interface behind +. + +Your password to access db.debian.org can be found encrypted with your +PGP key and appended to this message. It cannot be used to log into +our machines; see the paragraph on SSH keys below. + +You now have access to various project machines, for a list of them take +a look at . +Please remember that you accepted the Debian Machine Usage Policy in +your NM process (available at ). + +If you need additional software installed on one of the machines (in the +host system) please contact debian-admin@lists.debian.org, but keep in +mind that not all software is available on all architectures. + +On porter machines, the chroot environments can be entered with the +'schroot' command, depending on setup; take a look at the list of +machines to know which are our porterboxes. You can install build +dependencies yourself once you instantiated a session. Please +consult for more information +and ask your fellow DDs if you need any help. + +You need to use ssh to log into the machines; telnet and rlogin are +disabled for security reasons. On debian.org servers the only ssh +authentication method available is publickey. The LDAP directory is +able to share RSA ssh keys among machines, please see +. Please be aware of the +security implications of using RSA authentication and ssh agents. The +SSH fingerprints for all Debian machines can be looked up at + or a known_hosts file can be +downloaded from . + +Debian secures some of its websites using SSL. The SSL certificates +used are signed by a current commercial certificate authority. + +To give you a quick overview here is a list of the most important +machines from the project you can access. There is the main archive +server, but shell access to it is restricted for security reasons, so you +can only upload with anonymous FTP - please use the service name +ftp.upload.debian.org as the target for your uploads (so that we can +point that some place else when the archive system is down for +maintenance etc.). A tool like dput or dupload can aid this +process. + +The project main shell server is located at people.debian.org. +If you want your own Debian related site to appear behind + then put it on this +machine in the directory ~/public_html/. + +The machine hosting most of our VCS repositories +({svn,bzr,git,arch,hg}.debian.org) is alioth.debian.org. It's handled +by a separate team (admin@alioth.debian.org) as it allows login by +non-Debian developers. You probably already have a *-guest account +there. Please refer to https://wiki.debian.org/AliothFAQ to learn +anything you need to know, including how to activate your account and +how to request the removal of your old -guest account. + +There is one developer-only mailing list, debian-private. You have been +subscribed to this list as <__PRIVATE__>, please respect the privacy of +this list and don't forward mail from it elsewhere. This subscription, and +a lot of other data like your private information, can be changed at the +web interface available behind ; just login +with the password information appended to this email. + +The information stored here is used to maintain your accounts on various +Debian machines, and also to allow other developers and general users to +find out more about you. Many of the fields are only visible to other +registered Debian developers. This is also the only way to change your +password. The passwd program does not work. + +You can refer to https://wiki.debian.org/MigrateToDDAccount to find +additional notes to help you migrate your previous information to your +new account. + +Before we go on with other important information let's remember the most +important documents from the NM process. That you now got your account +doesn't mean to stop reading and checking them whenever you do packaging +or other Debian related work. + + o The Debian Social Contract + + + o The Debian Policy Manual + + + o The Debian Developer's reference + + +You can find much more information useful to developers at +. + +Also, please subscribe to the mailing list debian-devel-announce, if you +haven't done so already. All Debian developers are required to read +this list, as important announcements are made there. Changes to +Debian's infrastructure and maintenance of it are announced to the +debian-infrastructure-announce mailing list. + +We strongly suggest that you use your __LOGIN__@debian.org address for +the maintainer field in your packages, because that one will be valid +as long as you are a Debian developer, even if you change jobs, leave +university or change Internet Service providers. If you do so, please +add that address to your PGP/GPG key(s) (using `gpg --edit-key "YOUR +USER ID"') and send it to the keyring server at keyring.debian.org +with `gpg --keyserver keyring.debian.org --send-keys "YOUR USER ID"'. + +We suggest that you subscribe to debian-mentors@lists.debian.org. +This list is for new maintainers who seek help with initial packaging +and other developer-related issues. Those who prefer one-on-one help +can also post to the list, and an experienced developer may volunteer +to help you. You can get online help on IRC, too, if you join the +channel #debian-devel or #debian-mentors on irc.debian.org. Take a look +at the support section on in order to find +out more information. + +If you have some spare time and want to contribute it to Debian you +may wish to take a look at the "Work-Needing and Prospective Packages", +(WNPP) that can be found at . + +Welcome to the project! + +-- +Debian System Administrators on behalf of +The Debian New Maintainer Team + +__PASSWORD__
