What is a domain name?

Your Domain Name is your identity on the Internet. It is like having your own phone number. Essentially, Domain Names serve as routing addresses on the Internet. Each Domain Name corresponds to its IP address -

What is allowed in a Domain Name?

The only characters allowed in a Domain Name are the 26 letters of the English alphabet, numbers 0-9, and hyphens (-). A domain cannot begin or end with a hyphen, but it may contain one or more hyphens. You may use up to 63 characters plus the gTLD (generic Top Level Domain: .com, .net, and .org) as part of the Domain Name. Each ccTLD (country code TLD) Registry has its own restrictions on the length and format. Domain Names are not case sensitive and are usually displayed in all lowercase. You may, however, use capital letters to emphasis words in your Domain Name, like: DavysKitchen.com

Who owns my domain name?

The Registrant or person or organization listed in "WHOIS" owns the Domain Name for the time their registration fees are paid. WHOIS is the name of the database required of all Registrars that contains information about the Domain Name, nameservers, and registration and sometimes the expiration dates

Where will my Domain Name reside?

Webanchor.net provides name servers upon registration of new domain names. A Domain Name server is a machine connected to the Internet that identifies unique Domain Names (Web addresses) or Internet sites. Domain Name registration requires both a primary and a secondary nameserver. Each consists of a host name and a unique IP address. These house the Domain Name System information about the Domain Names hosted by the nameservers. These nameservers must be registered with the Domain Name Registry. Once you have registered your Domain Name with Web Souls, you can change the name servers for your Domain Name from your control panel. You will always need two separate name servers. This change can be made as soon as the registration is confirmed.

I don't have a "company" name. What do I use for "organization name"?

In the organization name field, please use your own name. It is not acceptable to leave the field blank or enter the words none, personal, home, or N/A.

Will Webanchor.net move my domain to my new server for me?

FOR ASP ONLY I have created an FTP user and was able to login but user can't see the home directory in FTP window. Also the user could not transfer files over. What may be the reason?

CAUSE:

New FTP users can not FTP to the Website unless they provide the website name as Remote Initial Directory in their FTP client.

SOLUTION:

There are three solutions for this problem:

1. Set "Domain.com" as Remote Initial Directory in the FTP client. Refer to FTP client's help manual for instructions on how to do this.

2. If you are unable to find how to set Remote Initial Directory then simply FTP using the assigned login and password and when you are connected execute change directory command "cd domain.com".

Advice of professionals Repair of apartments Accommodation of clauses Development of scripts PHP3. If both of the above solutions are not desirable then create a virtual directory in your FTP site and map it on the website's physical path. The virtual directory name shall be same as of FTP login name. Now when user will FTP, he will land to his home directory directly.

FOR ASP ONLY Is there a way for a webadmin to create a sub directory under his domain, and then create an FTP user which can only access that sub directory.

In this article , we suppose that user ABC is to be given FTP access for the folder http://Pizza.com/ABCAccess. Creating an FTP account having access to a special folder involves three steps. Step 1: Make sure Everyone full rights are removed from the root of every drive on the server. This is the basics of web server security. Step 2: Create a new FTP user 'ABC'. To create FTP user, follow these steps: Login as webadmin, click User Manager, click Add User, fill the form and only enable website you wish to have user access to. Do not enable any of the other sub folders of the website. Step 3: Give access to FTP user 'ABC' on ABCAccess folder. To give access to FTP user, follow these steps: Click Folder Security, click Security Setup. Select domain 'Pizza.com' from Folder box and click Select Folder button. Browse until you get the folder 'ABCAccess'. Select 'ABCAccess' folder and click on Permissions button. Select the user 'ABC' created in step 2 from Users box, select 'Full Control' from Permissions box and 'Both (files, folders)' from Inheritance box. Click Add/Change button.

The above three steps will create an FTP user 'ABC' and this user will be given FTP access on a special folder 'ABCAccess' under the domain 'Pizza.com'. Note: When the user ABC does FTP to the domain 'Pizza.com', he must provide 'Pizza.com/www/ACBAccess' as 'Initial Remote Directory' in the FTP client, otherwise the FTP will fail.
