Be sure that youve given me your e-mail address and other personal information on
hard copy. Well run through the process of setting up the space for your Web sites next class. For now, the guidelines are at:
How to set up a site
You may need to run a telnet session to create a public_html directory on the alpha server. While youre at it you can change the password from your standard LAN one at the prompt by typing "passwd" as in:
1%passwd and hitting Enter.
If you havent got a copy of Filezilla at home, go to
Filezilla Project
and download the free Home trial version (only good for 30 days). Other information and popular clients can be found at
File Transfer Planet.
When you log on here or at home, set the Profile Name and the
HostName/address to:
alpha.lasalle.edu,
the Host type to (Automatic Detect) or UNIX(standard) if that doesnt work,
and use your regular ID and your alpha password. You can also try to use ftp through the browser at ftp://alpha.lasalle.edu (works better off campus).
