If your server is configured to serve users' content, simply create a directory in your home dir, called public_html, and put all the stuff in there! It will be accessible as http://hostname/~username If the server is not configured to do it, /var/www is the place you are looking for. It is owned by root, so you will either have to change permissions/owner or use su or sudo everytime you update your site. Personally, I prefer the ~/public_html approach. -- Szia: Nyizsa. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Free pop3 email with a spam filter. http://www.bluebottle.com -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
