Moonbeam.town Wiki

Your own personal web space, which is located at https://moonbeam.town/~username. You can upload static HTML, images, and suchlike to this space via SFTP or SCP using your control panel username and password.

As mentioned above, you can host a website. Nothing too fancy, Geocities-level stuff.

You'll want to get a SFTP client (e.g. Filezilla) in order to access your website. I'll run through a quick setup for Filezilla that should be broadly applicable to other services.

1. Open the Site Manager by going to File > Site Manager, or Ctrl-S
2. Click New site
3. Select “SFTP” from the Protocol drop-down
4. Input moonbeam.town as the Server and 22 as the Port.
5. Change Logon type to “Normal” and input your username and password
   1. You can leave it on “Ask for password” if you don't want to save your password
6. Click OK

You can now log into the server by selecting it from the server drop-down (leftmost button on the toolbar). The first time you log in you'll have to click through the server certificate dialog; it should be safe to just approve, or you can verify the key with me.

Upload your website to your public_html directory.

There are no disk quotas but if we go above 50 percent utilization I'll eventually have to introduce some.

On the other hand, the CPU and RAM usage of the server are about at capacity, so please keep your websites basic – text, images, CSS.
