WebSpace

UMIACS provides web space hosting for research/lab pages and user pages.

Main Website and Lab Pages

http://www.umiacs.umd.edu

Users can access the main website and lab sites for editing in two ways:

• From Unix as /fs/www - and can be remotely accessed by SFTP to a supported Unix host (eg. OpenLAB)
• From Windows as \\umiacs-webftp.umiacs.umd.edu\www-umiacs - and remotely accessed by the same file share over the VPN

Personal Web Space

http://www.umiacs.umd.edu/~username

Users can access their website for editing two ways:

• From Unix as /fs/www-users/username - and can be remotely accessed via SFTP to a supported UNIX host (eg. OpenLAB)
• From Windows as \\umiacs-webftp.umiacs.umd.edu\www-users - and remotely accessed by the same file share over the VPN

In general, large datasets related to a Labs research should go into the specific lab's web tree, not the individual users. Remember that users' webpage is not permanently maintained once the user leaves UMIACS.
