CAD Web Hosting

Authors list

CADTech hosts many websites and offers Faculty/Staff and Students websites for academic use. All of these requested websites end up at http://acountUserName.cad.rit.edu

Features of our hosted environment

  • PHP

  • SSL

  • MySQL

  • Shell access

  • Per User Crontab

  • No quotas (within reason!)

  • phpMyAdmin Access

To access your webspace, you can connect to cad.rit.edu with your favorite SFTP client using your RIT computer account, or the username and password provided to you (if you have requested a group web account).

Every account also has a similarly named MySQL database created using the same username and password. Please take note when prompted for a MySQL server in your projects, you should point to cad.rit.edu and not localhost!
