I have a webpage in my home directory in my university’s RHEL 5.11 server that is accessible via www.univerisity.edu/~uname.
I have a domain name registered with godaddy and I would like to point that domain to my university web page.
Is this possible given I only have write privileges in my home directory of the university server?
If so, How can it be done?
Answer
Probably not.
You’d have to point an a record at your university’s public IP address and have that forwarded to the web server. I very much doubt they will want to forward all requests on port 80 to your webspace.
What you could do, however, is redirect your GoDaddy registered URL to www.univerisity.edu/~uname
