External resources

The DLNET.ORG Cloud makes use of open source software. See List of software for an overview. Each of the software packages used has its own documentation online. In particular, the following resources will be of use:

• Kolab Groupware Documentation, with information on how to set up and use email, calendar and other Kolab features.
• Seafile documentation, for synchronising and sharing files.
• Plex.tv Support Articles.

What to do in case of downtime

If you cannot reach your email or other services, the server may be down. There is no need to worry: any email sent to you will be received by the backup server, and the issue will usually be quickly resolved. In the case of prolonged downtime, feel free to contact me by text message or call me. If the server is down you can reach me at my backup email address, lennart@ackermans.info.

Technical information

In the future, information about the technical setup of the cloud system will be added to the wiki. For now, direct your questions to me.
