Your web site is hosted on a Sun Cobalt Raq 550, the complete
manual of which is available from the help '?' menu in the control
panel (see "To log onto the system
" below for more
details)
To log into the system go to http://www.domainName.com/login and
enter your username and password (same as for FTP email etc.). If
you are a .co.uk, .org etc domain then you would obviously need
to change the .com to reflect your domain. If your logon has site
administrative privileges then you can administer your domain from
this control panel.

When you upload your web site the web upload it to the /web directory
from the ftp root. When you log on with an ftp client, it will push
you to your own web directory this is not the same as your root
directory. If you drop your website in your own directory it will
not be visible to visitors to you web site address. To access your
root directory you need to change directory in your ftp client (i.e.
go up a level to the root). Don't use windows internet explorer
as it will not allow you to do so.
Any CGI scripts would generally go into a cgi directory off the
web directory from the ftp root. If the file association is .pl,
then they will execute as opposed to being downloaded, and you can
use standard .htaccess files to control directory access with Apache.
Perl is currently set to 5.6.0 (with backported security patches
as appropriate), which should be fine with most scripts. PHP is
currently around version 4.3.
You can customize the 404 not found errors html page, this can
be done by following the instructions on Page 161 of the manual
(putting the files in the /error directory).
The system has a couple of extras beyond those originally supplied
by Sun, such as an email anti virus and anti spam system, and enhanced
versions of PHP & mysql, webmail etc. but there is a lot that
can be done within the scope of the basic feature set. If you are
after any advanced developer information, the answer to just about
any question can be found in the help manuals.
