Setting up your own web page
- You can have your personal web site by placing a file index.html in your web folder on the math department server euclid.math.temple.edu (below we shorten this to euclid). Your can design your web site using software on your local machine and then copy it to the server using file transfer software, for example WinScp, where your web folder is euclid:/homedir/public_html.
- Alternatively, you can copy the design/layout of the departmental site by using the files in euclid:/home/www/includes and following for example the structure of the files in the directory euclid:/home/www/about. Auxiliary files are referenced through links in index.html.
- Make all files in public_html world-readable by typing at the prompt chmod a+rX /homedir chmod -R a+rX /homedir/public_html. (Note: Your home folder should contain exactly two folders: public_html, private. All personal files should reside in private. (Type "chmod 700 /homedir/private".)
- TeX files can be transformed into html via tth. tth is installed on euclid.
- Your web site can then be accessed through the URL http://math.temple.edu/~user where user is your euclid username.
