Webserver serving user content

If you need a webserver to serve content from your $HOME to the world, please create the directory ~/WWW on Atlas if it does not exist yet. Copying files in there allows anyone from the world to access those files, therefore double-check what you make available! The exception is the directory ~/WWW/LSC which is automatically password protected against roster.ligo.org, thus, if you have files which are not for the general public, please use this directory.

The webserver's name is simply www.atlas.aei.uni-hannover.de. User directories are mapped as follows:

Local directory	URL	Comment
~user/WWW/LSC	https://www.atlas.aei.uni-hannover.de/~user/LSC/	Open only via user/password from roster.ligo.org
~user/WWW	https://www.atlas.aei.uni-hannover.de/~user/	Fully open to the world!

Make sure that the published files have world read permissions and the directories world at least access permissions, better world read and access permissions with:

find ~/WWW -type f -exec chmod 644 {} \; -or -type d -exec chmod 755 {} \;
