Server Accounts

 

Server Account
 

You will need to get an account on the csweb01 machine.

HTML

  • create a subdirectory named public_html
  • place all of your HTML files in your public_html directory. This directory and any sub-directories should be of mode rwxr-xr-x
  • you can as desired make sub-directories inside of your public_html directory and I encourage you to do so for each project,etc.
  • The url leading up to your main public_html directory will be http://csweb01.csueastbay.edu/~login

PHP

  • place all of your files in your public_html directory on server. This directory and any sub-directories should be of mode rwxr-xr-x (755)
  • you can as desired make sub-directories inside of your public_html directory and I encourage you to do so for each project,etc.

Remote Connection to csweb01

You will need to use sometimes tools to do SFTP (secure file transfer protocol) to transfer files to / from a remote server / client.    Also, it is useful to be able to have a secure shell (like a login/telnet) session.   Our server we use (csweb01) allows this.   Here are some free tools for edu use I quickly searched on.  I like GUI interfaces though if you are into using Putty --then okay for this.


******* search for options for SSH tool but, here are a few ******************************

For Windows:


For Mac:

 

SPECIAL NOTE: you will often use IDEs like DreamWeaver to access your server and transfer files but it is sometimes necessary to do so with a separate tool
