Multiple sites for students

Hello,
I have an Xserve with Mac OS X Server 10.5.8 in a school. We want students to learn how to create, upload and maintenance websites.
So is it possible that every student gets it's own webspace?
I read that it is possible to create virtual sites in apache. But that is not an option because every site has it's own dns record.
It must be something like xserve.myschool.nl/studentnumber
And students must login so that they cannot make garbage from other students websites.
Thanks, Ferry

So is it possible that every student gets it's own webspace?
It's not only possible, but it's standard - you have to go out of your way to prevent a user having a personal web site on the server.
I read that it is possible to create virtual sites in apache. But that is not an option because every site has it's own dns record.
You can do it without needing a specific hostname in DNS for every user, but it takes a little more work.
It must be something like xserve.myschool.nl/studentnumber
The default, out of the box configuration says that http://your.server.net/~username maps to the Sites directory in that username's home directory. In other words, user 'joe' can put content in the Sites directory in his home directory and then access that via http://xserve.myschool.nl/~joe/
Is that sufficient?
And students must login so that they cannot make garbage from other students websites.
That's standard access permissions - no user should have access to any other user's home directory anyway.

Multiple sites for different geographic areas

i did a website for a letting agency in glasgow (
http://www.youlet.co.uk ) but
now the company has decided to open up an extra branch in
cambridge. iv optimised the original site and it appears in top 4
under certain optimised key phrases in msn and yahoo. iv been asked
to make a duplicate site for the cambridge office. now obviously
pages like the property search will have different content but more
informative pages like the home, about pages will be practicaly
identical other than changing all text references and keywords to
contain cambridge instead of glasgow.
so as not to mess with the ranking of the existing site, i
was going to put that whole site into a subdomain like
website/glasgow, do the same with the cambridge version then have
an index page on the main site linking off to the 2 sites.
what i wanted to ask was by doing this subdomain idea will
this allow each site to be treated as a site in its own right and
allow the glasgow veriosn to get back to where it was in the
rankings with it getting ignored as it is a subsdomain?
and also because the glasgow and cambridge sites will be
mostly identical apart from references to the location will this
count as being duplicate sites and count as spam?

Welcome to the Apple Discussions. When publishing multiple sites to to a MobileMe account the last published site will be accessible via the simple URL: http://web.me.com/youraccountname/
However each site has it's own URL which would be:
http://web.me.com/youraccount_name/sitename
So you need to tack on the site name at the end of the simple URL.
For what it's worth I use iWebSites to manage over 40 individual sites.. It lets me create multiple sites and multiple domain files.
If you have multiple sites in one domain file here's the workflow I used to split them into individual site files with iWebSites. Be sure to make a backup copy of your original Domain.sites files before starting the splitting process and move it to another location on your HD until you're satisfied the separation process is completed and what you want.
This lets me edit several sites and only republish the one I want. It's something you might want to take a look at.

Multiple sites for a subscription

We just installed CRM 7.0 and trying to assign a subscription to multiple sites.
For example, the documentation says to create subscription 'All Business Partners (MESG)' for publication 'All Business Partners (MESG)' for the R3 site (integrating R3 to CRM).
So that was done and the site for R3 has the subscription.
Now trying to setup the Groupware Connector (mBDoc site type) and create the same subscription per the documentation.
But when creating the subscription, the publication for 'All Business Partners (MESG)' is no longer an option.
Any ideas on how to accomplish this? To assign this subscription that is already setup for another site? Or is this a restriction of some sort?
thanks for any feedback!

Resolved.
After clicking on 'assign' to assign a site to a subscription, leave the u2018Filter Sitesu2019 screen blank and just hit ok.
The possible subscriptions will come up and can then be assigned.

Free fonts for students

I'm looking for higher quality free font sites for students to practice with. Is anyone aware of any?
Thanks.

Any of Jos Buivenga's fonts... Smeltery... a few others. Aside from that, you should simply set aside an afternoon to sift through MyFonts. Many of the commercial vendors eitehr offer demo versions of their fonts with only the basic glyphs, a free weight of their font packages or have free fonts that are not listed there. You'll simply have to do some digging. Font designers are quite elusive and many are just a one man show with small websites that are hard to find. And of course also check DaFont. 90% of those free fonts are crap of course, but there are a few quite usable ones there, still.

How can I manage multiple iPads for different students?

Problem: I need to manage multiple iPads for my students with special needs. I need to download different apps to different iPads and I'm not sure how to keep their apps separate but still keep ultimate control of the units (i.e. lock them from loading anything on the apps that we at the school district haven't approved).
I need to be the only one doing updates, loading software, etc., and don't want to keep using my own personal iTunes account...any suggestions?

If the presenter is using a computer and everyone else has an iPad this is very easy and free. Just use http://join.me and on the iPad just download their free app

How can we use a pdf form multiple times for different people (students)?

Our school created a pdf form of our report card but we are not able to "save as" the forms for use by multiple teachers for multiple students. Please advise.

Just use Adobe Reader XI. Adobe Reader XI allows for forms data saving but it does NOT allow for locking down that data.

How do you setup multiple sites to allow for code promotion?

I am somewhat frustrated with the single site flow of the Dreamweaver Site Manager in helping me manage a full development to production code cycle. Ideally I need to have multiple sites managed by Dreamweaver that are just different stages in the code lifecycle. Currently DW only supports local_file -> production. Instead I need (and this is sort of standard for software product systems) to have my local sandbox, a test site, a beta site and a production site.
In the normal dev cycle I would work in my sandbox and have DW synchronize with my test site ( allows scripts that need a full server to be tested in case my local machine is not running a full server ). I can do this today with DW. When I am ready I want be able to have DW synchronize with my beta site (might very well be on a different server via FTP) so that my users/customers can review, test and approve the changes. When everyone has signed off I then want DW to promote this code to the production site.
Now I can do this manually but DW seems to have 95% of the capability in place (mostly the synchronization logic). Is there a way to have it also manage/synchronize the beta and production sites?
Thank You

turingtest, I do have a couple questions.
Number one, does everyone in your family only sych their ipods from only 1 computer? If everyone only uses itunes from 1 computer I can see how that will work. But what if kids want to use itunes for windows? Will "Home Sharing" allow all their music purchased on the MAC, to be also displayed on their itunes for windows laptop? I noticed you have PCs and also an ipad. How do you manage your family's music on these devices?
Also, how did you first get everyone's music library into their own library? Drag & drop? Is the "grouping field" you mentioned under "view", then "view options"? What does this do?
Thanks.
Sorry I missed your post earlier. Normally I follow up on any replies. This one must have fallen off the page on a busy day.
As my kids have left home I have created for them a complete clone of the familiy library, then deleted the tracks from it they don't want. Over time their libraries will divirge, but if needs be they can still update their devices using the library at home. Handy when eldest's kit was stolen.
Grouping is just another property, useful because it isn't generally overwritten by other software but is stored in the tags, so preserved when you copy files from one place to another. You can make the column visible and edit for multiple tracks in Get Info. Some software calls the same field "mood" or "sub-genre". iTunes has a specialist purpose for it generally used with classical music, but it doesn't seem to work very well for that and I don't use it that way.

Best practice for running multiple sites on 1 CF install?

Hi-
I'm setting up a new hosting environment (Windows Server 2008 Standard 64 bit VPS configuration, MySQL, IIS 7, CF 9)
Has anyone seen any docs or can anyone suggest best practices for configuring multiple sites in this environment? At this point I'm thinking simple is best, one new site in IIS for each client (domain) and point it to CF.
Given this environment, is anyone aware of any gotchas within the setup of CF 9 on IIS 7?
Thank you in advance,
Rich

There's nothing wrong with that approach. You can run as many IIS sites as you like against a single CF install.
As for installing CF on IIS 7, I recommend that you do the following: install CF 9 without connecting it to IIS, then installing the 9.0.1 upgrade and any hotfixes, then connecting CF to IIS using the web server configuration utility. This will keep you from having to install the IIS 6 compatibility layer that's needed with CF 9 but not with CF 9.0.1.

Multiple URLs for different sites created on iWeb?

When I created a second site and went to publish it, the site was given the same URL (web address) as the first site I created. Does iWeb not identify new sites with unique URLs? Essentially my question is does each MobileMe account only support a single website?

Welcome to the Apple Discussions. When publishing multiple sites to to a MobileMe account the last published site will be accessible via the simple URL: http://web.me.com/youraccountname/
However each site has it's own URL which would be:

How to send right CallingNumber when Cisco CER is down for multiple sites

Hi,
Cisco ER 7.x system with centerized CUCM 7.1(x) cluster for multiple sites over WAN, where each site has local voice gateway (MGCP) with T1/PRI connected. All the phones are DIDs.
When considering 911 calls redundancy when CER is down, Cisco ER administration guide recommends using Local Route Group for 10911 or something else route-pattern on CUCM which is used:
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/partner/docs/voice_ip_comm/cer/7_1_1/english/administration/guide/e911plan.html#wp1062106
To configure LRG, follow these steps:
1. On Cisco Unified Communications Manager Administration, configure the LRG route pattern and route point for 911 emergency call routing.
2. On Cisco Unified Communications Manager Administration, configure any destination route point that is being forwarded in the emergency call route point with the LRG route pattern.
3. On Cisco ER Administration, configure the LRG route pattern as the default ERL.
My question is:
On the 10911 route-pattern using LRG, how can configure the each site ELIN number as the calling number on the route-pattern which is normally assigned on E911 partition only? or do I need change MGCP to H.323 in order to achieve this purpose?
Do I miss something?
Thanks,
JJ

Hi,
I am not sure with in obiee it is possible? But third party tool we can do it.
Site scope monitor tool is there, what this tool will do it will send the alert mail to respective team whenever services are down.
For more information google it? You can get better idea.
Thanks,

CQ5 Multiple custom 404 error pages for multiple sites

HI,
I have multiple sites, and I would like to set up a different 404 page for each of my sites
Someone already faced this problem? How I can accomplish this?
Or there is a way to do via the dispatcher and create a static 404 error HTML page each time I publish a site?
Thank You
Adolfo

Currently the most effective way to do what you're asking is to set up your 404.jsp to include the content of a site specific 404.
There was a conversation about this here;

Creating Iweb seperate domains for multiple sites DIDNT WORK

Hi! Any help would be much appreicaited!
I am creating mutiple websites in iWeb 09'. All 3 of my websites have been stored under 1 domain file on my mac. I have read numerous discussion boards stating the steps of how to seperate each of the created sites from the one domain file, into mutiple domain files. I followed the steps on this website :
http://lmsdiweb.wikispaces.com/Saving+Locally
I moved the Domain folder out of its original location into a new folder on my harddrive entitled "Sites". Then i made sub folders within that folder and duplicated the domain 3 times and placed each copy in those folders. then i double clicked on the domain for my 1st site, opened iWeb, and then deleted the other sites i did not want on this new "domain" file i created and hit saved. This is exactly what the website said to do to create the seperate domain files for each seperate site. It then said repeat for each site, deleting the sites that are not needed on that domain.
All of that being said, it didnt seem to work when i tried to open the 2nd copy of the domain. When iWeb opened after double clicking the 2nd domain copy, it did not open and show me all 3 sites as it should have, it opened to show me the one site that i just "saved" after deleting the other sites for the previous domain i was trying to create.
I'm afraid i posisbly lost my other 2 sites. I backed up my first initial "domain" file which had all 3 sites within it on my external hard drive, and when i double clicked on that to make sure my sites weren't lost forever, same thing happened and only my lastest site that i saved on the 1st attempt to seperate domain files is visable on my iWeb.
Did i loose everything i created in my other 2 sites? How do i get them back? What did i do wrong? Any help is much appreiciated as i have a feeling i might have made a serious mistake and need some help figuring this all out!
Thank you!
Also, I published all of my sites "to a folder" on my hard drive before doing this as well. Is there any way to take the published folder contents and put my site back on iweb for editing again?

With three sites in a domain file here's how I would do it. Create 3 copies of your domain file and name them for the three website, i.e "website1.sites, website 2.sites, etc.
With the application discussed in the text below open website1.sites and delete website 2 and website 3 from it and save. Open website 2.sites and delete 1 and 3. Do the same for website 3.sites.
Then use the application mentioned below to open iWeb and select the website you want.
In Lion and Mountain Lion the Home/Library folder is now invisible. To make it permanently visible enter the following in the Terminal application window: chflags nohidden ~/Library and hit the Enter button - 10.7: Un-hide the User Library folder.
To open your domain file in Lion or Mountain Lion or to switch between multiple domain files Cyclosaurus has provided us with the following script that you can make into an Applescript application with Script Editor. Open Script Editor, copy and paste the script below into Script Editor's window and save as an application.
do shell script "/usr/bin/defaults write com.apple.iWeb iWebDefaultsDocumentPath -boolean no"delay 1
tell application "iWeb" to activate
You can download an already compiled version with this link: iWeb Switch Domain.
Just launch the application, find and select the domain file in your Home/Library/Application Support/iWeb folder that you want to open and it will open with iWeb. It modifies the iWeb preference file each time it's launched so one can switch between domain files.
WARNING: iWeb Switch Domain will overwrite an existing Domain.sites2 file if you select to create a new domain in the same folder. So rename your domain files once they've been created to something other than the default name.
NOTE: iWeb 2 is not compatible with Mt. Lion and has trouble saving to the hard drive. It's suggested you obtain iWeb 3

URL prefix under IIS for multiple sites

I'm trying to set up DW8. I webmaster a large number of sites
for clients using a variety of hosting companies and web servers. I
use IIS under Win2K Pro.
Pre-DW, my setup has been to have a test area with folders:
Inetpub\wwwroot\site1, Inetpub\wwwroot\site2, etc. To test I browse
to localhost/site1, localhost/site2, etc. Then I copy the files to
another part of the disk: websites\site1, websites\site2, editing
them to change directions to the include files (sometimes I work in
ASP, sometimes in PHP). Even with a utility we've made special for
this task, this is a ROYAL PAIN. Then I upload site1 to server1,
site2 to server2, etc.
I have to do it this way because IIS will only recognize one
website at a time, and I jump around from site to site so often
it's a real pain to turn the sites on & off via the Control
Panel.
Now I'm trying to set up site definitions on DW8. For Site1 I
say the URL is www.site1.com, the local testing spot is
Inetpub\wwwroot\site1, and it gives me this "site URL prefix for
the testing server does not match the site URL prefix specified in
the HTTP address". What do I do? What have you-all found is the
easist approach:
1. fool DW about where files are kept?
2. Do the PITA switch between which site IIS thinks is
"live"?
3. host a local multi-site server?

> I have to do it this way because IIS will only recognize
one website at a

Can I use SRST for multiple sites wit separate 911 lines

Is it possible to use an SRST (like a 2911 CME/SRST) to support multiple sites.
We have two sites next door to each other. They are connected by fiber with Cisco switches (vlans) at box sites.
Can I use a single SRST and have two separate 911 POTS lines setup so that each site has it's own unique 911 associated with it?
I can create two separate Voice vlans for the two sites and I could have both 29xx interfaces in use (one for each VLAN), but can I separate the dialing out function so that each vlan uses a unique POTS line this way?
Any other solutions other than two SRSTs?

We have to keep the 911 dialing the same at all sites since I already had an idea like that ...but we use 911, 9911 and 8911 for everyone to reach 911 so that they are not confused during an outage.
We will just have to bite the bullet and order 2901 SRSTs for all our small remote sites.
