You can get the latest version of this HTML source anytime from your LocalWeb NT server nt1.localweb.com. The URL is http://nt1.localweb.com/welcome/test/formmail.htm. (The Fine Print: This HTML is provided as is, no warranties. It can be customized by you as you wish. For LocalWeb clients only.)
***** IMPORTANT ***** SAVE AND PRINT FOR FUTURE REFERENCE *****
Dear Client,
Your account has been set up on the following WindowsNT Server:
Hostname: www.yourdomain.com (or www.yourdomain.org)
Login ID: as per your contract
Password: as per your contract
Directory: /yourdomain (without the .com or .org)
To FTP your files:
------------------
1. Log into the hostname with your user ID and password
2. Change directories to your directory (the Microsoft WinNT
server does not automatically place you in your home directory)
3. FTP as usual.
Your Email:
-----------
Every domain is configured with it's own email addresses, for example
webmaster@yourdomainname.com
There are four types of email:
- 1. UNLIMITED FORWARD:
all emails to your domain are forwarded to a single external email
address like YourName@aol.com
- 2. INDIVIDUAL FORWARD:
Individual email aliases are forwarded individually, for example
webmaster@youdomainname.com goes to jack1234@aol.com
sales@yourdomainname.com goes to jill5678@compuserve.com
etc.
- 3. POP3:
Each alias has their own private mailbox with it's own login ID and
password and the email resides on OUR mailservers until you pick it
up. POP3 has the following parameters:
Alias : e.g. jane@yourdomainname.com
webmaster@yourdomain.com
Login ID : e.g. jane2 (2-8 characters)
Password : e.g. ******** (SECRET! never send this by email!)
7 or 8 characters, cryptic, no names or words.
INBOUND (POP3) MAILSERVER : mail.yourdomainname.com
OUTBOUND (SMTP) MAILSERVER : your ISP's SMTP mailserver
If using Eudora set POP3 account to
your_login_id@mail.yourdomain.com and set "Reply to:" to
your_email_address@yourdomain.com
- 4. MIX OF ABOVE
You can mix and match so you have some aliases forwarded, some
aliases going to POP3 boxes, and a default (unlimited) forward for
the rest.
TO CONFIGURE OR CHANGE YOUR EMAIL, SEND AN EMAIL TO
support@localweb.com
NEVER send POP3 password information via email! Please fax passwords
to 919-544-5345 for security.
WEB STATISTICS
--------------
The live stats for your website are available at the following URL:
http://www.yourdomain.com/iisastats/iisastats.htm
Online documentation and help is available with these stats. Please click
on the green question mark.
Please note that the stats may not be active immediately for new accounts.
Stats for new accounts are initialized once a week on Sunday typically, so
your stats may not be "live" until the Sunday after your account is set
up. Sometimes this might be delayed by an additional few days. This
delay is caused by some technical administrative requirements for the
stats server (IISA by Media House) and is unfortunately beyond our control.
REAL AUDIO/VIDEO LOGS
---------------------
These are stored in the directory E:\WWW\realaudio\LOGS on the RA/RV
server "real.localweb.com". These are combined logs for all domains, and
you can use the grep utility to see your own logs.
To get these logs via FTP:
1. FTP to real.localweb.com
2. cd /pnlogs
PLATINUM PREMIUM ACCOUNTS
-------------------------
You have an account on both UNIX and NT server. One is your main
account where the www.yourdomain.com points to. The other is
a "GOLD PRIME" account with FTP and telnet access. You can choose
which is your primary when your account is set up.
If your PRIMARY account is UNIX then:
NT account is on nt4.localweb.com (hostname)
User ID and Password are same as on UNIX.
If your PRIMARY account is NT then:
UNIX account is on www.localweb.com (hostname)
User ID and Password are same as on NT.
WHAT ARE ALL THESE FILES IN MY DIRECTORY?
-----------------------------------------
When your account is set up, you will see these files in your directory.
Save these files for later use, they contain handy examples of the
most common features on the NT Server such as counters, form mail,
Real Audio/Video, etc.
test.htm - Main "TEST" file
form1.htm - A simple test file for wSendmail
formmail.htm - A more complex test file for wSendmail
ra.htm - Real Audio/Video test file
testra.htm - Real Audio
testrv.htm - Real Video
welcome.nt - Save this!
DEFAULT FILES:
--------------
The "default" file may be named any one of the following:
index.htm, index.html, default.htm, default.asp, index.cfm.
The web server will pick the first file it finds from this list (in that
order) and display it as the default page for that directory.
NOTE: This is true for any subdirectories too.
Regards
Mike.
ASP GLOBAL PATH:
----------------
The true (full) path of user files is as follows:
E:\WWW\users\yourdomain
where "yourdomain" is the same as your domain name, with the ".COM"
stripped off (or .ORG or .NET stripped off, as the case may be).
If you have a default.asp, you MUST still have an "index.htm" file. In
your "index.htm" file, place the following meta tag somewhere in the
"head" of your index.htm, i.e. between the and :
<meta http-equiv="refresh" Content="0; url=default.asp">
A lot of good information os ASP is available from this URL,
including tutorials, etc:

----- EXISTING UNIX ACCOUNTS PLEASE NOTE THE FOLLOWING: -----
(PLATINUM TRANSFER ACCOUNTS ONLY, NOT PREMIUM)
If you have an existing account on a UNIX server and you had requested
a Windows NT server account, a new account has been created for you in
the NT server, accessible via the IP address
nt4.yourdomain.com
This is a temporary account to allow you to transition smoothly. Please
let us know when you are done with the UNIX account so we can reallocate
the IP address. If you need both a UNIX account and a NT account on
a long term or permanent basis please let us (know more than 4 weeks).
INTERNIC FEES (PLATINUM ACCOUNTS ONLY)
--------------------------------------
The Internic charges for domain registration and maintenance.
This fee is between the Internic and you. You will receive
an invoice from the Internic. Please see the Internic URL:
http://rs.internic.net/
for the latest information and requirements. We (localweb)
will submit the initial registration forms to Internic
on your behalf, but you are responsible for all Internic
fees directly between you and the Internic.
You can also make modifications yourself about your
domain information (change of address/phone, new
billing contact, etc. etc.), see the above URL for
the "Web templates". You are responsible for the
admin and billing information of your name, as well
as for any trademark/copyright issues regarding your
domain name.
This Internic fee is separate from LocalWeb's fee
for "domain setup". LocalWeb's fee is a one-time fee,
Internic's fee is annual.
====================================
Please remember, this is "server-ready" space, i.e.
you provide all the HTML and/or CGI. However, if
you do have any questions, we will always be ready
to help ... send us email, and we will respond, and
even look at your HTML and/or CGI on a time-available
basis (free of course, unless it is something horribly
complicated :-).
Again, welcome aboard, and I hope you enjoy our service
and the world of the Internet!
