CommuniGate Pro allows each user to be presented on the World Wide Web with a personal
Web Site. The URL for the accountname@domainname Account Web Site is:
<http://domainname:port/~accountname>
where the port is the WebUser port.
For example, the jsmith@client1.com account has the Personal Web Site at:
<http://client1.com:8100/~jsmith>
Personal Web Sites use the same HTTP port as the WebUser Interface
(the port 8100 by default).
The ~ is the default prefix for the Personal Web Sites. It can be changed
to a different string, and it can be changed to an empty string.
To modify the HTTP Access options, use the WebAdmin Interface and open the
WebUser page in the Settings realm:
All Routing Rules discussed in the Access section apply to the
Personal Web Site URLs, so account and domain aliases can be used in the Personal Web Site URL.
Personal Web site can be accessed without a prefix, using just the server part of
the URL string. When the CommuniGate Pro server receives an HTTP connection on the its
WebUser port, it uses the special Domain Routing
procedure.
If the domain name user.domain.com has a DNS A-record pointing to the IP address of the CommuniGate Pro
server, and the CommuniGate Pro Router has the following record:
<LoginPage@user.domain.com> = userA@domainB.com
and the Account userA exists in the CommuniGate Pro Domain domainB,
then the URL http://user.domain.com/ can be used to access the Personal Web Site
of the userA@domainB.com Account.
Personal Web Sites must not contain any index.html file. This name is reserved
for the Personal WebSite Management forms.
The home (default) page of a Personal Web Site should have the default.html name.
This means that when the file name is not specified explicitly, the default.html name
is assumed. If a Web Site has folders (subdirectories), then the request with the
http://server:port/prefix user/folder/ URL retrieves
the default.html file from that subdirectory.
Private Folder
If the Personal Web Site contains the folder with the name private, then files in
that folder are available only to the Account owner and Administrators with the CanAccessWebSites
Domain Access right.
The private folder can be used as a repository for any type of documents - the
user can access them from anywhere, using any browser.
