So you're ready to begin putting out your own Web pages, but aren't quite sure where to start?

There are two methods, you can either:

1. Create your web pages directly on our site from scratch, or you can
2. Send over pages you have already created.

Creating from Scratch

• You should telnet into your Netmar Account, using the telnet client on your computer. For detailed instructions on getting connected by telnet, click here.
• Next, enter your www directory by typing in: cd www. You should now be in your www directory. Just to make sure, type in: pwd. This returns the directory you are working in. If everything is ok, you should see: /www/mhome/userid/www/
• Now, it is time to create your lead-in page. To do so, simply use the editor of your choice: pine, emacs, vi, etc. to create the file index.html. This page will be the one loaded by the web browser when it is sent to the location: h ttp://netmar.com/~usrid.

Sending Over Your Pages

• You need to start by connecting to Netmar with the ftp client on your computer.
• When you connect, you need to enter your username and password, as prompted by the system.
• You will begin in your home directory. So type in
  cd www
  to enter your www directory.
• Then you need to type
  put filename
  for every file you wish to place in your www directory.
• When done, type in
  bye
  To exit the ftp session.
