Personal Web Pages

With your Unix account, you automatically have a World-Wide-Web URL. All you need to do is to create a web page to correspond to it, and you are on the Web! For your convenience, we have installed a script that will create a starter home page for you. Simply give the command makehomepage and it will set up the necessary public_html directory. You can use the Kompozer web page editor that is installed on the lab machines to create a home page file (which you should name index.html) and other files to create your personal web space.

Once you have done this, anyone can visit your personal web page by going to one of the following URL's: http://www.cis.fordham.edu/~username or http://www.dsm.fordham.edu/~username where username is your login name. The first form is for users with accounts on storm, and the second for users with accounts on erdos.
