To Publish  a Web Page on the UMUC-Europe faculty server

1) A client side Web browser (Netscape versions 7 or higher and
Internet Explorer versions 6 or higher).

 2) A faculty logon account and valid password.  All UMUC faculty are eligible
for an account. Contact umed-helpdesk@ed.umuc.edu for logon information.

3) Web creation software like FrontPage or DreamWeaver (or Netscape Composer).

The steps to putting your page on the UMUC faculty server are as follows:

1) If you don't know if you have a HOME PAGE on the faculty server, check the
faculty Home Page at http://faculty.ed.umuc.edu/staff/faculty/homepage/index.html

2)  Create your web page(s) offline, using your favorite web editor (Even MS-Word can create HTML files for the web). 

3)  Publishing your document:

After creating your Web and making your editing changes.

Select FILE and then PUBLISH WEB or use the right mouse button to publish selected files.

Upload files using FTP (Do not use HTTP for our servers) and enter the path to your faculty web directory.



 In the above exampble, substitute "faculty" for "student" and your "logon name" for the word "if350a0"

NOTE: When you send the web files over to the Solaris (UNIX) faculty computer, be
cognizant of the fact that Solaris/UNIX is case sensitive.

Your default start page, (main page) MUST be called "index.html" all in lower case. If you use
another program (e.g., WS_FTP to transfer the files, sometimes your default settings will not let you copy over an existing file - check your FTP settings). Your files must be placed into your "public_html" folder, or subordinate thereto, in order for them to be seen on the web.

I also have a Secure Shell (SSH) program available for FTP and TELNETting to your account. You must contact me via e-mail using your faculty mail account for the password and location to download the file.
