- Login to a UNIX machine. (To do this, choose
the "internet" option from the Start menu and then select
"telnet to clarion" or "telnet to ritz."
Login using your usual CEC login name and password.
If you have a new
account, you'll need to provide the original password you received.
Then, once you login on UNIX, you should
type the line
passwd
and follow the instructions to change your password to be the same
as it is on the Windows NT system.
- Next, type the line
~cs101/makehomepage
into the telnet terminal window and hit return.
- Read the message displayed and
write down your URL and your home page file name
in case you forget them.
- Type
logout in the terminal window (and close the window).
-
Your .www-docs folder should be in your H: drive folder, which may be
named "H:\-NFS".
(If you open your H: drive folder but don't see the .www-docs folder inside,
select "options" from the "View" menu. Then, in the dialog box,
select "show all files" and click on "OK.")
- Edit the file index.html in the .www-docs folder
to personalize your home page. Instructions on what to change are
provided as comments in the file itself. (You can edit the file using
the Symantec Cafe editor. Just select "Open" from the file menu and
find the file in your .www-docs folder. If you don't see the file,
that's because Cafe normally shows you only the .java files.
To fix this, go to "List Files of Type" at the lower left of the
file open dialog box, and select
Custom (.java,.html) so
that both kinds of files will be shown.)
Note: Depending on what editor you use, when you save the file, the
editor may set the permissions so that other people don't have access to
your page anymore. To fix this, set the permissions to that the file is
readable by all. On Windows, you can do this by selecting the file and
then selecting Properties from the File menu in the explorer. Then
select the chmod tab and check the "R" box under "other" (to allow other
people to read the file).
