Information
Technology Services is pleased to offer web space
services. We invite members of the College community
to apply for a web account.
What
is the web account?
Your web account will allow you access to the
server publish.holycross.edu where you
may publish web pages on the Holy Cross web servers
as follows:
www.holycross.edu
hosts official college pages as well as faculty
and department accounts.
intranet.holycross.edu
hosts college pages that require on-campus limited
access.
college.holycross.edu
hosts personal, student, conference and organization
web pages.
stage.holycross.edu-
hosts new site development, site redesigns and
work study or other collaborative web projects
(limited to on-campus access).
What do I need to use my web account?
To publish to the web you'll need an FTP
(File Transfer Protocol) client such as WS_FTP
or Fetch. WS_FTP is available via the NAL. E-mail
the Help Desk at helpdesk@holycross.edu
for information on obtaining Fetch.
Are there any restrictions on web accounts?
Only current students, staff and faculty may obtain
a web space account. Restrictions on all web accounts
are those specified by the Holy
Cross Information Technology Policy and Web
Policy. It is very important that all web
authors follow the guidelines and rules governing
copyright, privacy and appropriate/inappropriate
material. Web authors are prohibited from sharing
usernames and passwords. Violations of these rules
will result in deactivation of your web account.
See
Web
Standards & Practices for more
information.
How do I get a web account?
To receive an account, login to Faculty
or Student Services and select Web Space
Request from the menu. Complete the form and
submit it online. You'll be contacted when your
request has been approved. Permission
to edit pages on department web sites will require
the approval of the appropriate department head.
