The Ambassador

The Ambassador is both warrior and diplomat. He listens to the words of those who deserve influence and guides those in his care as he guides himself. He acts not selfishly but for the betterment of all.

The list here covers the operating systems and standalone applications which we support.  Please note that this list is dynamic and by no means represents 100% of our capability.  Certain things have been excluded, such as programming languages like PHP or Python, or web application frameworks like Rails, Drupal, or Django, because although we can install them for you, they don't constitute an application that provides functionality on its own.  Similarly, applications that are part of the functionality of the core operating system (such as cron, syslog, rsync, DHCP, NFS, event viewer, etc) are considered supported as part of the operating system itself.

If you have a number of systems that run a current application that isn't in this list, please ask us about its eligibility for support.  You may find that we have the skill set and are willing to add it to this list.
