FTP Settings
**FTP (File Transfer Protocol) is how you transfer your website from your computer to MIT's server
You can download an FTP program, Fetch (OS X) or SecureFx (Windows), from MIT by clicking here
For more in depth, you can also check out the 'how to upload' pdf tutorial
The web settings are as follows:
| Hostname (Server): | ftp.dialup.mit.edu |
| Username: | [KERBEROS USERNAME] |
| Connection type: | SFTP |
| Password: | [KERBEROS PASSWORD] |
| Default Dir: | /afs/athena.mit.edu/ |
Your folder is usually located in the filesystem as follows:
/ afs / athena.mit.edu / user / (first letter of your user
name) / (second letter of your user name) / (your
user name)
Mine would be...
/ afs / athena.mit.edu / user / c / m / cmalcolm / www
Your website is stored at:
http://web.mit.edu/[username]

It is best to use actual
hexidecimal color codes instead of color names...i.e. #FFFF00 would be yellow. #00FF00 would be green.
This text is yellow and this is green
Links
