How to: SFTP
What is SFTP?
As you can tell, web developers love themselves some acronyms. FTP stands for File Transfer Protocol. SFTP is the same thing with the additional S meaning SSH, and SSH stands for Secure Shell (See: More SFTP and More SSH). It's basically fancy wording for "We're going to take files that are on one computer/server and copy them onto another computer/server". In this case, we'll be copying files that you made on your own machine and putting that copy onto your prism drive. How this works depends on which operating system you have.
When you've finished uploading, your website MUST be viewable from:
http://www.prism.gatech.edu/~prismid
If your prism id is gburdell3, http://www.prism.gatech.edu/~gburdell3 is where the TAs will look to find your web site. If your TA sees a list of things
in that folder, a 403 forbidden error, or anything other than your fully functioning index.html page, you will sadly recieve a 0 on this assignment, and
zeros make me a sad panda. :-(
We're only supporting Windows and Mac, as we'll assume anyone actually using Linux full time knows this kind of stuff by default. So...
