Tutorial: SIT Personal Webspace
tim.dawborn on Mar 5th 2008
Did you know that the Usyd School of IT servers provide personal webspace for any students studying IT?
You can have your own website at a URL like http://www.ug.it.usyd.edu.au/~userXYXY
To set up your personal webspace allowed on your School of IT (SIT) account, log into a congo machine either at uni or via SSH and type the following commands:
$ mkdir -p ~/lib/html $ chmod 711 ~ $ chmod -R 711 ~/lib $ cd ~/lib/html
Create your webpage in this directory (~/lib/html), say it is called index.html. Now to make it publicly visible on the internet, type the following:
$ chmod a+r index.html
Then assuming your Usyd username is abcd1234, open your Internet browser and go to http://www.ug.it.usyd.edu.au/~abcd1234/
