How do I upload pages to my web
site?
This is perhaps one of the more intimidating tasks for
first-time site builders. It sounds hard but it is actually very easy. You
can upload files using the Aussie Site-Seeing Control Panel, or you can use any
FTP (File Transfer Protocol) software. Microsoft FrontPage users can choose to use FrontPage to publish their
sites in one easy step. Our Control Panel contains
comprehensive guides to uploading and maintaining your site. It also has
over 350 pages of How To Guides, Troubleshooting Guides, Answers to Common
Questions, Tutorials, Software Downloads and other useful resources. Top
Will I have unlimited FTP access to my
account?
You will have access to your site 24 hours a day, 7
days a week so you can work on your site whenever you want to. Top
What can I do with
Telnet?
You can use Telnet to log in to your site and access
the Unix prompt. From there, you can issue pretty much any Unix (Linux)
command. Telnet is not an essential tool for running a web site, but it can be
very useful, particularly if you intend to write and/or install your own CGI
scripts - the debugging information you can get by running your script locally
through Telnet can be invaluable. Telnet can also be useful for many other
tasks (e.g. file management) but most of the common ones can be performed
through FTP software or the Aussie Site-Seeing Control Panel. Top
What is Secure Shell
(SSH)?
Secure
Shell (SSH) is a secure replacement for telnet. Many users of telnet,
rlogin, ftp, and other such programs might not realize that their
password is transmitted across the Internet unencrypted, but it is. SSH
encrypts all traffic (including passwords) to effectively eliminate
eavesdropping, connection hijacking, and other network-level attacks.
Additionally, SSH provides a myriad of secure tunneling capabilities,
as well as a variety of authentication methods. All that you need to
use SSH on our servers is telnet access and appropriate software on
your local machine. Our Control Panel contains links to a number of free
SSH software downloads. These generally have the same look and feel as
telnet software. Top
Do you support Microsoft FrontPage 2003
Extensions?
Yes, we do. Our servers support Microsoft
FrontPage 97/98/2000/2002/2003 Extensions. The extensions are free. You will be
asked whether you want the frontpage extensions installed on your site at the time you place your
order. Top
