We recommend that you read through all of Chapter 2 Getting Started before using your Virtual Server.
Directories
As a ROCKCI DIY customer, you are given a user directory on our server where you can FTP your HTML Files and their associated images, maps, cgi, etc. We suggest using an FTP program for doing this (see our HELP-LINKS for FTP programs you can download).
Using your FTP program, Log in Using the following:
| Use this Host: | www.YourName.com |
| Use this User ID: | Your_Login_Name |
| Use this Password: | Your_Password |
The first directory you see is your user root directory. In order for your home page to load when a WWW user types http://www.YourName.com, you must have a file called index.html, index.htm, or index.shtml (for server side includes) in this directory. Note that we have installed a customized Homepage in your account index.html. Use this as an example to set up your Homepage. Your FTP program will permit you to make sub-directories off your user directory (such as /images, /maps, etc) to better organize your account.
Note: Please keep careful track of your disk space usage. You are responsible for staying below the limit of your specific plan. If this limit is exceeded you will be billed for the additional space.
