UMIACS provides web space to users for hosting a personal site related to their research. The public URL to the users' content is:

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

Users can access their website for editing two ways:

  • From Unix in /fs/www/users/username - and remotely accessed via SFTP
  • From Windows in \\conduit.umiacs.umd.edu\webhomes - 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.
