Step 3: Copying the Web Files to Your WWW Directory
Once you've developed your web pages on your personal computer or some other space, you'll need to copy them to the appropriate www directory.
Note: If you have created your Web pages on a Mac or Windows computer, you will need to use a File Transfer Protocol (FTP) client to copy them to the server. We recommend Fetch for Mac users and SSH Secure Shell for Windows users.
- Launch your FTP client and use the following settings to copy your files:
Hostname: unix.andrew.cmu.edu
Userid: Your Andrew UserID
Password: Your Andrew Password
Directory: ~/www
Note: You will need to enter your Userid and password if you haven't already authenticated.
- Copy your web files (i.e., all HTML files, graphics files, etc.) to the WWW directory.
Note: If you are using a Macintosh or PC, refer to the documentation for your FTP program (SSH Secure Shell or Fetch) for more information about transferring files.
If you are using an Andrew workstation, you can use the UNIX cp command to copy the files. For additional help with using this command, enter "man copy" in UNIX.
