Storing and Serving Files on UNIX

Once you are happy with the format of the local (Mac based files) and you want a permanent Web page you should FTP the file to your personal UNIX file space.

There are 2 places where you may store HTML files on your personal UNIX file space.

NOTE: There is a Difference

project_html

-- Files place in this directory will be viewable only within the department.

• Use URL: http://www.cs.cf.ac.uk/Project/A.B.Surname

  where A.B.Surname is your long email name to reference files from Explorer/Netscape.

public_html

-- Files place in this directory will be viewable on the whole Internet. This is where you would create your Home Page.

• Use URL: http://www.cs.cf.ac.uk/User/A.B.Surname where A.B.Surname is your long email name to reference files from Explorer/Netscape.
• You will have to register your pages on the COMSC Information Server. See Creating your own HOME PAGE and Online User Guides http://www.cs.cf.ac.uk/User/howto.html.

• Change the directory to your project_html or public_html directory.
• Put the file(s) in this directory.
