If it does not, please contact Margaret Jaffey in Ry 161A.You should see a login link at the top right of our website pages. After the certificate authorization process, you will be asked for your CS Unix username and a web password.

A directory owned by you should have been created for your course website. For example, CMSC 10200-91 offered in Summer 2002 is located in the Unix directory:
/stage/classes/archive/2002/summer/10200-91/.
Files in this directory can be accessed via the url:
http://www.classes.cs.uchicago.edu/archive/2002/summer/10200-91/
(or through http://www.classes.cs.uchicago.edu/current/10200-91/ if the course is currently in session.)Files in these course directories are backed up, and archives are maintained. CGI programs are not permitted to run from this directory, however, you can put CGI programs on your people page and link to them.
