Picking Up Your Email

Email sent to your domain will not be stored on interLink's normal email server.  Instead, it is stored on our web hosting server.  You can set up your email accounts to forward to your interLink mailbox, if you wish.  Or, you can pick up your domain-based email from our web hosting server.  

To use the web-based email, go to http://webmail.virtual.ilhawaii.net and follow the directions.  Remember to put in your entire email address, including your domain name.

To use your existing email program, the two main changes are:

  1. Use 'mail.yourdomain.com' as the incoming mail server.
  2. Use 'youremail@yourdomain.com' as the login or user id.

     (Use your actual domain name, not 'yourdomain.com')

IMPORTANT:  Check your mail before sending mail.  With most popular email programs, this is done automatically when you click on "Send/Receive".

For full details on setting up your email program, please go to the mail setup page.

Uploading Your Site

Home page naming conventions
Your home page must be called one of the following: index.htm, index.html, index.shtml, index.phtml, index.php or index.php3.

Location of files
Any files (other than CGI scripts) that are to be viewed by the public must be placed in your public directory (or a subdirectory of public). If you place files in a directory other than public, only you will have access to them. CGI scripts are placed in your cgi-bin directory.  These two directories have been created for you automatically. Do not move them or change their names.

Using FTP
The site you are connecting to is your domain name. The username is also your domain name, and the password is the one you use for website management.  After connecting with FTP, don't forget to move into the public directory for your html files, or the cgi-bin directory for your CGI programs.

Using Front Page
After configuring your site for Front Page, using the Web Manager, you can publish to www.yourdomain.com without any special changes.  (Use your actual domain name, not 'yourdomain.com') You do not need to create a special 'public' directory; your files will be uploaded into the correct directories by Front Page.

WARNING: When you enable Front Page, you disable FTP.  If you need to use FTP for any reason, you will have to un-install Front Page first.  You can then re-install it after you're finished using FTP.

Using the Free Order Processor
Please follow the instructions here and contact us when you're ready to link your order form to your site.

Using SSL
To enable SSL on your website, use the online website manager and click on "SSL Manager". 

Two special folders are created for you when you enable SSL. The secure folder contains HTML and images and the secure-cgi-bin folder contains CGI programs you want to run securely.

To access files in your secure directory using SSL, the URL is  https://www.securewebexchange.com/yourdomain.com/ 

To access the CGI programs in your secure-cgi-bin directory, the URL is

https://www.securewebexchange.com/yourdomain.com/cgi-bin/

(Use your actual domain name, not 'yourdomain.com')

CGI, SSI, and Ladat
