1.
Ask for Club Space to be created and permitted to your
[current] GPU id
Contact the
director
of Student Groups, and tell that person the GPU id to
permit the new shared space to.
Your web address ("URL") is going to be:
http://www.ualberta.ca/CLUBS/SomeFancyClubName/
... and it will be associated with the AFS disk space:
/afs/ualberta.ca/dept/su/clubs/SomeFancyClubName/
2.
Copy your old web pages to the new area:
From step 1, the
director
of Student Groups created a new AFS subdirectory for
you, which will [kind of] match the URL you asked for...
/afs/ualberta.ca/dept/su/clubs/SomeFancyClubName/
... and the director has permitted that AFS directory
to your computing id so that you are now the
kingpin/god/master/keeper of that file space.
LOG INTO GPU , and type the following command:
cd ~public_html
tar -cf . | (cd /afs/ualberta.ca/dept/su/clubs/SomeFancyClubName/; tar -xpvf -)
... you may have had to "quit lynx" if you are using the
menu-driven lynx help system on GPU...
3.
Check a few house-keeping things:
- Do you have to change any of the web page links that
directly referenced your old web Address?
cd /afs/ualberta.ca/dept/su/clubs/SomeFancyClubName/
fgrep -i '~oldid/' *
- Do you have to get rid of the old EMail address,
which no longer exists?
fgrep -i 'oldid@' *
- Do you have to switch
Geo-guest
to Geo-ClubGuest?
fgrep -i 'Geo-guest' *
- Do you have to re-permit any of the directories to
new club members that should have "write" access?
fs setacl /afs/ualberta.ca/dept/su/clubs/SomeFancyClubName/ yourfriend write
fs setacl /afs/ualberta.ca/dept/su/clubs/SomeFancyClubName/ yourotherfriend write
fs setacl /afs/ualberta.ca/dept/su/clubs/SomeFancyClubName/ yetanotherfriend write
- Do you want to announce the change/addition on
http://www.ualberta.ca/CLUBS/News/
bulletin board?
You might just want to add a little announcement to this file, so you can attract new visitors, or potential members, to your club.
Consider adding your club to the Submissions page, too.
