Accessing your ocelot server account and creating your website
==============================================================

 From Windows use:
 Putty  or    
 ssh smithJ902@ocelot.aul.fiu.edu

 From Linux use:
 ssh smithJ902@ocelot.aul.fiu.edu  or 
 secpanel  

 From your Cell telephone use:
 ssh smithJ902@ocelot.aul.fiu.edu 


Your user name and password were explained to you at the beginning of the semester via email.


Creating folders, files and access rights for your Website
==========================================================
 
Once you have gained access to your ocelot.aul.fiu.edu account, you need to give
711 access rights to your account, as follows:
    chmod 711 ~


Now create your public_html folder (also known as home directory), as follows:
    mkdir public_html


Give 755 access rights to your public_html folder, as follows:
    chmod 755  public_html


Now move into your public_html folder as follows:
    cd public_html


Create your home file (known as index.html) as follows:
    touch index.html  or
  
    using any linux editor:
    nano index.html
    pico index.html
    vi index.html
    vim index.html


Now enter and save YOUR NAME name in your index.html file.

 
Give access rights to your index.html file as follows:
    chmod 755 index.html  


All the folders and files that will be your website must be inside your public_html folder.


Make sure to give access rights to ALL new folders, programs, pictures etc added into your
website, to be accessible by all users.


Now using any browser, access your website as follows: 
 
    http://ocelot.aul.fiu.edu/~yourUsername


At this point you should see a blank screen with your name on it, otherwise it means
that you did not follow the above instructions, so please do them again.


If you have any questions, ask me or email me.


Happy programming!!!!
