Web Hosting

Web hosting allows students, faculty/staff, and departments to develop and upload web pages. To learn about no-charge courses for developing Web pages, see Web Design Training.

All web hosting services offered by the Division of IT include the following:

  • Web server configurations that provide redundancy and fail-over in case of hardware failures or disasters to keep your web site downtime to a minimum.
  • System monitoring available 24 hours per day, 7 days a week.
  • Access to technical staff training in Internet Administration to assist with troubleshooting and consulting.
  • Nightly tape backup and restore — all web servers administered by the Division are backed up to tape.

Service Changes in 2007

Beginning January 1, 2007, all requests to http://www.missouri.edu/~pawprint/ will be automatically redirected to http://web.missouri.edu/~pawprint/. This redirection will be in effect until December 31, 2007, after which www.missouri.edu addresses will no longer work. Departments using Bengal web hosting should be aware of this redirection and begin using the new URL style for links, print items, and other marketing materials. Departments using Bengal web hosting are also encouraged to move to one of the hosting options listed on this page.
