If you have already signed up for a CWNet Hosting account, you can log into the CWNet Hosting Control Panel by clicking the button below.

Documentation regarding features available in the Control Panel will be available here soon. In the meantime, use the help button located in the lower right hand corner.

Your inbound mail server will be mail.yourdomain.com. Use your ISP's mailserver for outbound mail.

You can also check your mail via webmail at webmail.yourdomain.com.

The files for your website can be accessed via ftp using the server yourdomain.com, with the password you chose when setting up and using the login of yourdomain (without the .com or similar extension).

What is the absolute path for my files?

Use relative paths when possible, but if a perl script requires an absolute path, use /usr/local/psa/home/vhosts/yourdomain.com/. So, if your domain is happycats.com, your path to your cgi-bin directory would be /usr/local/psa/home/vhosts/happycats.com/cgi-bin/.

What are the paths to common utilities?

/usr/bin/perl

/usr/sbin/sendmail

Do you have a hit counter?

Yes. Simply insert the following code into your page:

 <img src="http://www.cwnethosting.com/tool/counter.php">

It produces a counter that looks like this:

Do you have a script to email the results of a form?

Yes. When you set up your form, make sure you are using the POST method, and set the action to http://www.cwnethosting.com/tool/form.php?to=myemail. Replace "myemail" with the mailbox you want to send email to. Note that you do not have to put your domainname - it will automatically be added.

If you want to have a response page, put &goto=http://domain.com/path/ where the URL is the page you want people to be forwarded to once the email has been sent.

So, for instance, if your email box is "sales", and you want people to go to "happycats.com/thankyou.htm", you would use the following form tag:

<form method="POST" action="http://www.cwnethosting.com/tool/form.php?to=sales&goto=http://www.happycats.com/thankyou.htm">

Again, you do not have to specify your domain, and you can only send mail to your own mailboxes. If you wish to send mail to a different domain, set up a mail forward account in the Control Panel.

I am having problems with sending mail using ASP. How do I make it work?

ASP's CDO.NewMessage object will not currently work because it requires the use of a local SMTP service and CWNet's SMTP service is provided by an external system. In order to use an external SMTP service, the CDO.Message object should be used instead. The CDO.Message object is more flexible, allowing you to specify an SMTP server of choice, rather than defaulting to the local service.

More information regarding the CDO.Message object can be found at MSDN (msdn.microsoft.com)
