Accessing Lehigh Static Webspace (via SSH)

1.  Open a command prompt window.  

To do this in Windows, click the Start button, and start typing 'cmd'.  When the 'Command Prompt' app icon appears, hit 'Enter'.

On a Mac, open the 'Terminal' app from the Utilities folder under Applications on the hard drive (when it opens, It will look very similar to the PC version displayed).

2.  At the command prompt, type "ssh <my_username>@ssh.lehigh.edu", replacing <my_username> with your own Lehigh username, for example "ssh dab406@ssh.lehigh.edu"

If you're questioned about the 'authenticity of the host', type "yes" to add ssh.lehigh.edu to your list of trusted systems.

3.  Enter your Lehigh password when prompted ( and respond to the Two-Factor prompt if you're off-campus and not using the VPN and your account is enabled for Duo. )

4.  Type "ls" to list the contents of your current directory position.  You should see at least two entries here: private and public.

5.  Type "cd public" and then "ls" again.  Here you should see a directory entitled "www-data".

Type "cd www-data".  HTML, jpg, and pdf files Inside this directory will be served to the web, and accessible as named.  If there's a file called 'index.html' it will be displayed by a browser pointed to "https://www.lehigh.edu/~<username>" for any Lehigh username.

7.  To transfer files into and out of this directory, use an FTP program, such as scp, sftp, MobaXTerm or Fetch.
