4573.0. "Personal Directories - Netscape for OVMS?" by CHEFS::16.42.4.5::hattos (I'm back - as a matter of fact) Wed Mar 26 1997 02:58

Hi,

I have searched but couldn't find anything.

Can someone tell me whether it is possible for Netscape Communications 
Server/Fastrack on OpenVMS to support personal directories?

Does that make sense?

What I mean is a URL of the form http://server.domain/~stuarth/index.html

where stuarth is my VMS username and this is mapped to my login directory (or 
somewhere else which is configurable).

I sure hope this is possible - I have to install this next week!

Any replies gratefully received.

Cheers,
Stuart
(PS. great to be back!!)

    Only the Communications and Commerce servers are available for OpenVMS
    at this point.

    It sure is possible. The feature is called "users' public information
    directories". On OpenVMS it works pretty much the same way as it does
    on UNIX, but we go to the SYSUAF of course to locate the user's "home"
    directory.
