DCSWCC Member Webhosting

#1 Post by LukeJedi » Sat Oct 11, 2008 7:30 pm

As part of our current webhost, we have unlimited hosting/bandwidth capabilities. To help members showcase their collections, or publish other Star Wars-related web content, we have decided to allow members to post their own personal website to the DCSWCC server space.

There will be two options:
1) Host your own domain. You are responsible for registering your domain through any number of registrars and paying all applicable fees. DNS records will need to point to Dreamhost. This option gives you your own "top level" domain (TLD), such as http://www.lukejedi.info
2) Host your own subdomain. This option gives you your own sub-domain to DCSWCC.ORG, such as http://lukejedi.dcswcc.org

Rules:
1) All published content and use of the webservers must comply with Dreamhost's guidelines, found here: Dreamhost Terms of Service
2) Any sub-domains to dcswcc.org (for example, larry.dcswcc.org) must be Star Wars in nature and not reflect negatively on the club. No profanity, porn, etc. The officers will decide if content is inappropriate.

Guidelines:
1) The fee for hosting will be $5/year payable to DCSWCC. This does not include any domain registration fees if you choose to use your own top level domain.
2) Each member will receive their own user name and have complete access to their webserver account (Shell/FTP/SFTP), domain names, mail.
3) Each member can install any of the one-click installs provided by Dreamhost (Wordpress, etc) here is the full list or provide their own content.
4) We strongly recommend email be handled by Google -- but it is not required.
5) You are COMPLETELY responsible for the structure and content of your website. DCSWCC officers can not help you with content or design or programming.

If you have any questions please contact Bob (lukejedi)

Furthermore, we now offer free subdomain redirects:
If you already host your own site, such as http://www.nuftjedi.net, we can provide you a free redirect subdomain. For example, http://nuftjedi.dcswcc.org can re-direct to http://www.nuftjedi.net.
