CADTech hosts many websites, and offers Faculty/Staff and Students websites for academic use.
All of these hosted websites will follow this naming convention: 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 web space, 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!
