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.

.htaccess file
Please put .htaccess file in your home directory Var/www/html. .htaccess files is very useful.

AddHandler cgi-script cgi pl
Options +FollowSymlinks
Options +ExecCGI
- 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/$1
Replace www.domain.* (4th line) and domain.* (7th line) with the actual domain name of the pointer (minus the 'www.' in the second instance). Do not put .com or .co.uk on it; keep the asterisk. Also replace the four instances of "subdir" with the subdirectory on YOUR site that domain pointer will map to.
This will redirect requests for the domain pointer (both domain.com and www.domain.com) to the directory specified.
- Prevent other webmaster steal your traffic
Options +FollowSymlinks
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^$
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.
