Unix Shells ( Using Fedora or other *nix )

[Starshine]

I am wanting to use my spare computer to run a *nix operating system and offer hosting for MUD games.

What I need to figure out, is how do I set up accounts ( say, like 50,100,500mb ) per person?

Sorta like Webmin ... but offering shell accounts ( where they log in to their account to the shell, and have only x amount of space )

Any idea? ...

I take it you allready have Linux? (stupid question, but you never know...)

Yes. I have Fedora Core 4 installed on my spare computer. I just don't know how to set up accounts for people to use ( Say, like a 100 meg account and seperate login )

Cool, well, I am looking into geting linux. I have absolutely no clue about anything with Linux so I am going to subscribe to this thread and see what I can figure out. Is the configuration any different from windows/Mac OS?

Shell accounts? You mean like the ones you use SSH to access? I wouldn't imagine it would be that hard.

Yes. Exactly.
I want to be able to set up like 2-4 accounts, each person would have their own login / password and a set amount of space to use and an address ( like them.mydomain.com or mydomain.com/them )

I am wanting to set up for them to run MUD games ...
