I got a couple requests to post a thread on how to use the 50mb of space Cal Poly provides all students with. I'm not much of a computer-nerd but I'll try to help you guys out. Feel free to pm me or reply here if you have questions!
1. Control Access to your account here:
https://www.csupomona.edu/cgi-bin/in...fs_acl_control
This sets which parts of your account you want to keep private. I set access to my whole User name. Pro: You can host images in any folder. Con: Almost anyone can look through directory.
2. You can browse your files and directories through FTP using the URL:
ftp://username@ftp.csupomona.edu/
If you are going to use a program to access your ftp site, here is the info you'll need:
server name:
ftp.csupomona.edu
username: your username
password: your password (default: yy/mm/dd)
remote directory: specify a directory
3. If you are going to host a web page off your FTP, save your page as, "index.htm"
ex:
www.csupomona.edu/~mleong/sleepie/index.htm
A good site that I found useful while creating my web site was:

If you are the computer-nerd type and would like to add info or CORRECT my mistakes please feel free to reply!! Thanks everyone! - Monica
