Re: [cobalt-users] Qube Main site files



Working late, huh?

I am not sure about the Qube's directory structure, but I am guessing it is 
similar to the RaQ's.

Take a look at the "/home/sites" directory.  If you do a directory listing 
(ls command) you should then see a subdirectory for each "host.domain.name" 
you have created.  For example, an "ls" command of the /home/sites directory 
would show

   home             www.morrel.com   www.totalaccess.net
   www.cobalt.com   www.site1.com    www.yahoo.com

(NOTE:  All of our example "www" sites are symbolic links - so there are 
actually 2 ways to get to these directories/files)

Now, if you do a "ls" for /home/sites/www.cobalt.com you will have the 
following subdirectories:

   certs   ftp   logs   users   web

And so you would go to the "web" subdirectory and start putting your files 
there with your preferred file transfer program.  If you are using Microsoft 
FrontPage, that's another topic since it gets rather involved.

But, ultimately, your "pwd" (present working directory) is:

   /home/sites/www.cobalt.com/web/

But remember this is the "symbollically linked" way of getting the directory.

You can do an "ls -al" and find out where the link is pointing, and then 
substitute it for the "www.cobalt.com" part of the path name.

Sorry if my explanation is not clear or made with enough feeling.  I am 
working late too and it has been a long, long day.

Any more questions, just let me know.  (I'll ask Gerald.)
