Here are some Hurd boxes that users have made available to the public:

[[table class="table_style_1" data="""
"Host Name","Operator","Access","Distro","Machine Specs","Comments"
"flubber.bddebian.com","[[Barry_de_Freese|bddebian]]","ssh; port 2250","Debian","PII 550 MHz; 384 MiB"
"clubber.bddebian.com","[[Barry_de_Freese|bddebian]]","ssh; port 2251","Debian","PIII 1 GHz; 384 MiB"
"gnubber.bddebian.com","[[Barry_de_Freese|bddebian]]","ssh; port 2254","Debian","PII 733 MHz; 384 MiB"
"hurd.nipl.net","[[AlastairPoole]]","ssh; port 24","GNU","AMD Sempron 2800 MHz","not sure if this machine is still alive"
"""]]

To request an account on the `*.bddebian.com` machines either contact
*bddebian* or *tschwinge* (other people might also be able to help) in [[IRC]]
or send email to <hurd-shell-account@gnu.org>.  Also use these contact
addresses for requesting support with respect to software installations, etc.

For the `hurd.nipl.net` host, please see <http://www.nipl.net/>.

To be able to use just `ssh [machine]`, you should append your public SSH key
to `~/.ssh/authorized_keys` on the remote machine.

And if you don't want to worry about the machines's IP addresses changing (due
to dial-up connection) or the host keys changing every now and then (when the
machines are re-installed), put something like the following into
`~/.ssh/config` of the machine you connect from:

    Host clubber.bddebian.com clubber
      HostName clubber.bddebian.com
      Port 2251

    Host flubber.bddebian.com flubber
      HostName flubber.bddebian.com
      Port 2250

    Host gnubber.bddebian.com gnubber
      HostName gnubber.bddebian.com
      Port 2254

    Host *.bddebian.com clubber flubber gnubber
      CheckHostIP no
      UserKnownHostsFile /dev/null
      StrictHostKeyChecking no
