What is OSSF Web Hosting Services?

For every project hosted on the project developement site (rt.openfoundry.org), we have provided web space at http://[Project ID].openfoundry.org for project administrators to create a project-related website, giving project administrators greater resources and versatility in managing their projects.

What functionality does OSSF Web Hosting Services provide?

We provide each project 100 MB of static web space. In the future we will provide scripting language capability and template systems as well as ready-to-use website systems.

How do I use the service?

If you are a project administrator and agree with the Term of Use, then you can use SCP (Secure Copy), SFTP (SSH File Transfer Protocol) or FTP over TLS to log in to webhosting.openfoundry.org. After logging in, your home directory will have links to all the projects you've managed before. Any files you place in this directory will be accessible through http://[project id].openfoundry.org .

For UNIX machines you can use the command line to send files, for example:
scp index.html user@webhosting.openfoundry.org:myproj/,

sftp user@webhosting.openfoundry.org or
ftps webhosting.openfoundry.org

For Windows, you can use WinSCP or FileZilla with SCP / SFTP / FTP over TLS to send files.
