Code of Conduct

Pages hosted on the School's web servers are accessible to the internet.

Setting up personal pages

The School's web servers are set up so that URLs like http://servername/~login search the directory location ~login/lib/html. Directory listings are enabled, but any file called index.html is displayed if present in a directory which is referred to in a URL.

Personal web pages must be located beneath the lib/html subdirectory of a user's home directory. The web pages must be publicly readable, and the path to the lib/html subdirectory must also be publicly accessible.

To set up the directory location with appropriate permissions for a personal web page for a user login, and ensure that all files contained in the personal web page directory are accessible, login to whichever of www.it.usyd.edu.au or www.ug.it.usyd.edu.au is appropriate and there execute:

cd 
chmod o+x . 
mkdir -p lib/html 
chmod o+x lib 
chmod -R o+rx lib/html
