After your site has been approved, you can use ssh or sftp to access the server to upload files and change settings. If you are not on campus, you will need to install a VPN client. The one from ITCS works well: itcom.itd.umich.edu/vpn.
If you need help installing or connecting to the VPN, please contact 764-Help.
Once you've installed the VPN and connected to the network, you can use an SFTP or SSH client to log in to your website's server.
When connecting, you will need the following information:
- Hostname: <yoursitename>.sites.uofmhosting.net
- Username: Your U-M uniqname
- Password: Your Kerberos/Level 1 password
- Port: 22. (Most SFTP clients won't ask for port number, or will default to 22.)
After you connect, you should change your site directory to /data/<sitename>/ .
