Setting up a home page

  1. Create your HTML (a template page can be found at http://rsphysse/appmaths/template.html Remember to copy the associated GIF files across too. The file photo.gif contains your mug shot.
  2. Log onto your School Unix account create the directory ~/public_html within your normal Unix login directory (mkdir ~/public_html).
  3. Move your HTML files and figures (eg. using Fetch if you're on a PC or Mac, or directly with a web authoring program such as Claris Home Page, see Anthony about this) into this directory. Change the template file to your userID.html. Our Dept home page links to this file directly from the Staff Directory page.
  4. Finally, you need to change the file protection of your directory so outside people can excess your page. This is done with 'chmod a+rx public_html'. Then change directory (cd public_html) and set the protection on each of the files in this directory (chmod a+rx *.*)
  5. Your URL will be http://rsphysse.anu.edu.au/~username/userID.html (eg tjs.html). If the filename is not supplied it will default to index.html. It is advisable to add this URL information to your e-mail .signature file so that other people can find out about your page. In addition submit your URL to one of the many search engines, Alta Vista is a good place to start. The template file contains a place for keywords which will increase your web presence markedly.
