Configuring Physical Hosting

As a domain user, you cannot set up physical hosting, however you can view the physical hosting account settings, change FTP password and FrontPage authorization mode. To do it, follow these steps:

  1. Click the Setup icon on the Domain administration page. The Physical Hosting Setup page appears.

  2. Enter the new FTP password, and confirm it in the appropriate fields.

    NOTE

    The maximum FTP user name length should not exceed 16 symbols, which is required for compatibility purposes. As the FreeBSD operating system does not support user names longer than 16 symbols, the users who are running RedHat Linux and having names longer than 16 symbols (as allowed by RedHat Linux OS) and willing to migrate to FreeBSD would encounter certain problems during restoring of data backed up on RedHat Linux.

    You cannot use the reserved system words, such as "mailman" for user names.

  3. You can authorize or disable remote editing of the web site using Microsoft FrontPage. To activate Microsoft FrontPage authorization, set the FrontPage authorization option to Enabled. If you want to turn off Microsoft FrontPage authorization, select the authorization Disabled option.

  4. Click OK.
