ECE Class Web Pages
Transfer files from a Windows computer to web pages
Creating or modifying personal web pages
To create an ECE class web page, transfer files to your directory. The class web pages are located at /home/www/class/eeXXXX where XXXX represents the class number.
You should be able to view the class pages at:
http://www.ece.umn.edu/class/eeXXXX
If you receive the message, "403 Forbidden, Your client does not have
permission to get URL /class/eeXXXX/index.html from this server.", do
the next step. At the unix prompt:
chmod -R 775 /home/www/class/eeXXXX/*
First, install SSH. Please see our Linux/Unix/SSH Guides page for more information.
On the Start Menu, select "SSH Secure Shell" and then "Secure File
Transfer Client".
Under "File" select "Connect".
Enter "savanna.ece.umn.edu" or "prairie.ece.umn.edu" without the quotes and your username.
Then select "Connect". Respond "Yes" to the question about Host
Identification if it appears.
Enter your X.500 password to login.
You can drag and drop files between your PC and your account in the
SSH Secure File Transfer window. If you want to transfer files directly
to a web page, select "Operation" on the pull down menu. Then select
"Go to Folder". Enter the path to the web page directory, /home/www/ .
. .
Personal web pages are displayed at
http://www.ece.umn.edu/users/ECE_username
where ECE_username represents the user's ECE username.
Login to the computer "savanna.ece.umn.edu" or "prairie.ece.umn.edu" without the quotes. Transfer
the files to the personal web pages. The personal web pages are located
at /home/www/users/ECE_username.
You should now be able to view the personal pages. It may be necessary to
refresh your browser window to see the changes.
The ECE Support team works to ensure the security and functionality
