UNIX Shell Accounts:


What is a shell and why do I need one?

A shell is a login account on a UNIX server. You do not need a shell if you are the average webmaster. It will be of no use to you. If you are an advanced UNIX user you may wish to have a shell account.

For security reasons we ask that you e-mail our support team and request a shell account, they will let you know what information you need to provide.

Once you have your shell account you must protect your account from hackers. All activity is logged outside your machine and the viewing of password or other files that do not belong to you will result in termination of your account and civil/criminal action.

You cannot use "TELNET" you must use ssh so that all information you send between your computer and the server is encrypted.

You can get a ssh client at http://www.zip.com.au/~roca/ttssh.html this is a free open source program that works well for windows computers.

Rewrite Modules

Please put:

Options +FollowSymlinks
RewriteEngine on

in your .htaccess file

.htaccess file

Please put .htaccess file in your home directory Var/www/html. .htaccess files is very useful. Following is four examples:( put the lines into your .htaccess file )

  1. File not found:
    ErrorDocument 404 http://www.yourdomain.com/error.html
  2. To execute CGI, perl scripts outside the CGI-BIN, upload your .htaccess file to the parent directory( in your /var/www/html/ folder) where you wish for the execution of CGI scripts):
    AddHandler cgi-script cgi pl
    Options +FollowSymlinks
    Options +ExecCGI
  3. Add unlimited domains into your /html directory ( you need apply alias for your domains )
    RewriteEngine On
    Options +FollowSymlinks
    RewriteBase /
    RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www.domain.*
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !/subdir/
    RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /subdir/$1
    RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^domain.*
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !/subdir/
    RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /subdir/$1

    Replace www.domain.* (4th line) and domain.* (7th line) with the actual domain name of the pointer (minus the 'www.' in the second instance). Do not put .com or .co.uk on it; keep the asterisk. Also replace the four instances of "subdir" with the subdirectory on YOUR site that domain pointer will map to. This will redirect requests for the domain pointer (both domain.com and www.domain.com) to the directory specified.
  4. Prevent other webmaster steal your traffic
    Options +FollowSymlinks
    RewriteEngine on
    RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^$
    RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^http://yourdomain.com/.*$ [NC]
    RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^http://www.yourdomain.com/.*$ [NC]
    RewriteRule .*\.(gif|GIF|jpg|JPG)$ [F,L]

Attention: .htaccess is very complicated and its application is beyond the support scope. But most common errors are the path of your .htpasswd. It should be your full path.
