educ.jmu.edu web publishing and program development Linux/Unix server

Educ.jmu.edu is a webserver for JMU faculty/staff/student individual content and general faculty/classroom Unix/Linux development use. The 'Educ' name is pronounced as in Educ-ation, in other words E-Duke-ation or E-Duke.

This server is not the home for general JMU information, which can be found at: http://www.jmu.edu/.

Connecting to the Server

For security reasons, this server no longer supports FTP clients. Rather you must use an SSH/SCP/SFTP client. Windows users can download WinSCP from the JMU Computing Software Downloads page. When connecting to the server with the SSH/SCP client, you will use your JMU e-id and password for authentication. You must have an active JMU e-id and password in order to publish to educ.jmu.edu

If you have a valid JMU e-id and password, and need access to educ.jmu.edu, fill out the Educ Account Application.

To view pages for a specific user, simply go to: http://educ.jmu.edu/~userid/ where userid is the JMU e-id of the particular user's webpage you are looking for.
