Q. How do I create a personal web page?
A. Creating a personal web page can be done by simply reserving your
space on MUPFC (Marshall University
Personal File Cabinet), or commonly referred to as your V: drive, this can be done
by creating a folder and naming the folder "public_html".
Complete the following steps to create a "public_html" folder on your V:
drive.

Any files placed in the 'public_html" folder will be fully public and
viewable by anyone on the web.
To create a default page place an index.html file in your "public_html" folder.
The web address for your webpage is
http://mupfc.marshall.edu/~your
user name
an example of a personal webpage address is: http://mupfc.marshall.edu/~jdoe2

3. Connect to mufpc.marshall.edu (the server that contains V drives) and
copy the files (commands you enter are in bold text):
HOBBIT$ ftp mupfc.marshall.edu
MUPFC.MARSHALL.EDU> login
Foreign username: marshall\username
< password required for marshall\username
Password: <-- Enter your domain password. It will not echo
anything.
<User marshall\username logged in.
MUPFC.MARSHALL.EDU> cd public_html
MUPFC.MARSHALL.EDU> mput *.html*
MUPFC.MARSHALL.EDU> bin
MUPFC.MARSHALL.EDU> mput *.gif
