If you have an anonymous FTP area, also check:
du s ~ftp/yourdomain.com
To check how much space is being used by files in your home directory, type:
du s $HOME
Adding up the results from all three of these commands will give you the total amount of space you are using,
but a simpler way of checking all three directories is to type:
du * www/* anonftp/* c
You will then see a space report for each directory (
a
to see for each file) and at the end, a total.
Changing Your Password
To change your password, Telnet to your account. After logging in with your username and password, at the
Unix prompt, type:
passwd
A script will ask you to type in your old password, then the password you want it changed to will be asked for
twice to verify. This will not work for POP only accounts. There is no way you can change the password for
those accounts they must be changed by sending us email and we will take care of it.
Zip/Unzip Files
This Unix program is compatible with the zip program for DOS and Windows. To zip files, first have the files
uploaded to your server, then log into your account with Telnet. Navigate to the directory where the files are
that you want to zip (for instance by typing cd www then cd sounds). Then type:
zip myzip file1
file2 file3
This puts the files "file1", "file2", and "file3" into a new zip archive called "myzip.zip". On the other hand, if
you had the archive "myzip.zip" and wanted to get back the files, you would type:
unzip myzip
Typing
zip
or
unzip
by itself will give you a usage summary, showing nearly all the options available.
Accessing Your Email
We recommend using Eudora as your email client. This is a mail program that runs under MS Windows and
Macintosh OS. Eudora connects to the mail server over the Winsock or Macintosh TCP/IP. Mail may be
composed and read offline, but make sure that Winsock or TCP/IP is running before attempting to send or
receive email. Although your account exists on our server, you won t be able to receive email at
yourname@yourdomain.com until InterNIC has activated you in the domain name servers.
After Eudora has been installed, it must be configured to point to your server. To do this, start Eudora and
select "Settings" from the menu bar. Most of the options are self explanatory. Here are the steps you need to
perform to set up Eudora:
1) Install and start up the Eudora program
2) Select "Settings" from the "Special" menu
3) Select the "Getting Started" tab, then under Real Name, enter your Real Name
