MIT SIPB Script Services for Athena

scripts.mit.edu is a hosting service for the MIT community that provides several popular web packages such as MediaWiki and WordPress, as well as CGI script, MySQL, cron, and procmail hosting. The service is free to any Athena account holder or group locker. It has over 3000 registered user accounts, and is used by a number of student organizations and academic groups at MIT.

The scripts.mit.edu service is provided by the Student Information Processing Board (SIPB), MIT’s volunteer student group dedicated to computing. It is neither run nor supported by IS&T, and we make no guarantees about uptime or support.
