To view website visitor accesses, there is a
directory called Analog in your /htdocs directory. To access it, just log on the
Internet and with your web browser, go to:
http://www.yourdomain.com/analog
You will see a webpage to generate
statistics for your domain. If you are a brand new domain, you won't see any statistics
there yet. If you go to the link from that page leading to Weekly Reports, you will see a
much more detailed report, including pie charts, graphs, etc. These reports are
automatically generated for you once each week, and are stored in one place so you can
compare weekly statistics easily.
In your logs directory, you will see a
file called access. You can download this file and open it in any word processor to see
exactly what files were accessed, what domain the visitor came from, the dates and times
of each visit, etc.
Checking
Server Space Usage
You can find out how much space is in
use by the www files for your domain by using Telnet to log into your account and then
from the Unix prompt, typing the following:
du -s /data/sites/yourdomain.com
This will give you a report back of
the number of kilobytes (k) all files in your www directory add up to.
If you have an anonymous FTP area,
you can also just check FTP space:
du -s /data/sites/yourdomain.com/ftp
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 * htdocs/* anonftp/* -c
You will then see a space report for each directory (-a to
see for each file) and at the end, a total.
Real Audio/Real Video
Real Audio or Real Audio/Video is available for an extra charge. See our
fee schedule for details.
Real Audio is a real time audio transmission/player system. A digital
audio stream is transmitted from the server over the Internet to the destination and
played immediately, rather than being stored to disk first and then played.
Each audio clip requires two files: a metafile with extension .ram, and
the digital audio clip itself, with extension .ra.
The .ram file holds one or more lines of ASCII text, each of which
references the .ra file to be played when the .ram file is accessed by the browser.
Entries in .ram files have the form:
pnm://machine.host4u.net/yourdomain/name-of-clip.ra
Place your .ram and .ra files in the realaudio subdirectory under your web
directory. Remember that .ram files must be uploaded in ASCII mode while .ra files must be
uploaded in BINARY mode. You may then access these files via a web browser at:
http://www.yourdomain.com/realaudio/file.ram

Additional Users on your
Domain

these additional accounts can access the server via FTP, Telnet, and Email with the
following parameters:
Hostname: yourdomain.com
Username: their unique username
Password: their unique password
POP Account: their unique username@yourdomain.com
SMTP Server: yourdomain.com
When they login via FTP or Telnet, they will be taken to their directory,
where they will see their own www directory
