6. Frequently asked questions#
Answers to frequently asked questions about the CLUB1 server.
Questions#
Is it possible to modify my CLUB1 identifier?#
There is currently nothing done to allow members to modify their CLUB1 identifier. Indeed this identifier is widely used at different levels, especially for email addresses, static web pages and databases.
Can I host my emails at CLUB1 with my domain name and create many independent addresses?#
Short Answer: NO
Long answer: CLUB1 provides one email box per member account with a main address and all its sub-addresses. It is possible to create custom alias on demand, but not to create additional mailboxes.
Est-il possible d’héberger un site Web avec un domaine externe ?#
C’est possible, cependant il y a une contrainte technique : ⚠️ Il est nécessaire d’utiliser un sous-domaine de votre nom de domaine.
Par exemple, si vous possédez crevette.com,
il ne sera pas possible d’héberger le site https://crevette.com sur le serveur CLUB1.
Il faudra utiliser un sous domaine, tel que https://www.crevette.com.
(Ça peut être autre chose que www, mais c’est une convention pour le Web)
Concrètement, il s’agit d’ajouter un enregistrement CNAME pour www pointant vers club1.fr.
Utiliser un CNAME permet de créer un alias sur un nom de domaine plutôt que sur une adresse IP.
C’est pratique dans notre cas, car l’adresse IP du serveur CLUB1 peut changer,
tandis que son nom de domaine ne changera pas.
Tip
Chez certains registraires, il est possible de créer une redirection HTTP automatique depuis votre nom de domaine vers le sous-domaine de votre choix.
What space do I occupy on the server?#
Except for emails, there are ** no quota defined for personal spaces**.
For an estimate of the space occupied by your personal files, the following command can be run once connected with SSH:
du -shx
If you want to reduce the weight of your folder, but you don’t know where to start, the ncdu command is for you! It allows you to sort and highlight what takes the most space in your files and folders.
Finally, to know the remaining space available on the storage medium, this last command can be used:
df -h .
This information is also visible in the MOTD, when you log in with SSH through a terminal. Or on the Drive, at the bottom of the side panel.
How do I change my CLUB1 member password?#
At this time, the only way to change your CLUB1 member password is to run the
passwdcommand from an SSH connection.Tip
If you connect to CLUB1 in SSH for the first time from your personal computer, there is a tutorial to help you make your first SHH connection.
