Panix Web FAQ: 1.2. Corporate Web Pages


How do I set up a Corporate Website?
Please consult our Corporate Web Services page for a list of services and prices, and submit the order form linked at the top.

If you have additional questions, please send mail to corp-web@panix.com or call us at 212-741-4400 Monday-Friday between 10 and 6 Eastern Time.

How do I upload my files?
Use an FTP client like Fetch for MacOS or SmartFTP for Windows. Open a connection to shell.panix.com, and authenticate with your your Panix username and password. You will be shown a list of the directories in your account. One of these directories will be called 'corp-web,' and within that directory is a subdirectory with the name of your domain. Double click on that directory to make it the target directory for uploading files. Upload your files using the 'put file' command. It will differ slightly depending upon which FTP client you are using. It will prompt you will a dialog box to show it which file(s) you wish to upload.

Remember that the default main page of your website, and of any subdirectories, should be "index.html" or "index.htm".

Can I use Frontpage?

Frontpage is not compatible with the Apache web server software environment. Furthermore, Microsoft discontinued support for Frontpage in 2006. Therefore, the answer is an unqualified, irreversible "No."
