It's a bit confusing without access to the basic info. >There is one: > http://www.indirect.com/IL-howto.html When I put my pages up, I was looking at another web page that said to use a MakeDir command to create a web directory. I followed those directions and later found out that they don't work. Then I found out that I have to email admin to request a web account. I did that, then sent the files up and after some troubleshooting with the help of customer support, I eventually found out that I was sending the files to my home page directory instead of the www directory. I noticed that the page at http://www.indirect.com/IL-howto.html doesn't mention that you have to email admin for a web account. Now I wonder whether I really didn't have to email admin for a web account or if that was just left out of the instructions. Perhaps the problems that I had were not because of lack of information but rather because of extra incorrect or outdated information. Clarifying that the home pages are in such and such a directory and that web pages are in such and such a directory sure would have helped me.
