Welcome to your new account! 

To begin changing settings for your web site, setting up new email accounts, and creating new FTP users, log on to your easy-to-use Control Panel at the following url:

http://www.yourdomain.com:2327

(Replace "yourdomain.com" with your own domain name.) Enter the userid and password provided to you in the Account Activation Notice email. A detailed Control Panel User Guide is available on our web site to take you through the various features.

Uploading Files:

The following information is contained within your Account Activation Notice email and is needed to connect to the site: username (userid), password and FTP host name. It is our recommendation that you store this email in a safe place in case you need to refer to it later. It is also recommended that you change your password often, to something that cannot easily be guessed by others. While your domain name is propagating or being registered (sometimes this may take up to 72 hours), you may use your IP address to connect to your site.

Customers with Microsoft FrontPage® extensions installed on their sites should use the FrontPage® program to transfer files to their account. Please consult your Microsoft FrontPage® documentation for assistance on using the program, or visit our FrontPage FAQ.

When you connect to the web server via FTP, you will connect directly to the root (or "home") directory of your account. You will see several system folders such as bin, cgi-local, htdocs, and stats which are landmarks suggesting a successful connection.

Your web page document root is /htdocs. You can transfer files to this directory and/or create subdirectories within /htdocs. The only system directory that you may need to use is cgi-local; this directory is reserved for custom scripts.

To make your new home page load automatically, name your homepage HTML document "index.html" (in lowercase only) and upload it to the /htdocs directory of your account. Be sure to upload HTML documents in ASCII mode and images in BINARY mode. This default page may be replaced automatically when you upload your index file, so rename this file or print it for future reference. More detailed FTP instructions are also available.

If you have more detailed questions please also visit our Frequently Asked Questions web site. Or, for technical problems with your account, email our support department.
