Can I create a personal home-page?
Anybody with an account on our system can create their own web-page, world visible.
- Create a directory called www under your home directory. e.g. mkdir ~/www
- Change the permissions on it to be world readable and executable, e.g. chmod a+rx ~/www.
- Change the permissions on your home directory to make it world executable only, e.g. chmod a+x,go-r ~. It is highly inadvisable to make your home directory both world readable and executable.
- Use the name “index.html” for the first page you want visitors to see.
- This page will be http://www.stp.dias.ie/~, e.g. the url for aeinstein would be http://www.stp.dias.ie/~aeinstein
