-If you need additional software installed on one of the machines (either
-in the host system or a chroot environment) please contact
-debian-admin@lists.debian.org, but keep in mind that not all software is
-available on all architectures. The chroot environments can be

-ssh keys among machines, please see <URL:http://db.debian.org/doc-mail.html>
-Otherwise when you first login a ~/.ssh directory will be created with

To give you a quick overview here is a list of the most important
-machines from the project you can access. First there is
-ftp-master.debian.org, sometimes known as newraff. It is our main
-archive server and the place where you upload your packages. It is
-restricted, so you can only upload with anonymous FTP, a tool like dput
-or dupload can aid this process.
-The Projects web pages, CVS archive, the main shell server and various
-other stuff is located on gluck.debian.org. This machine is also reachable as
-{cvs,people,www}.debian.org. If you want your own Debian related site to
-appear behind <URL:http://people.debian.org/~__LOGIN__> then put it at
-this machine in the directory ~/public_html/.

+({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
