At irishastronomy.org email and web hosting

Just a reminder that all IFAS member clubs are entitled to free banner free web hosting with full database, CGI and php access on this server.

All societies are also entitled to an email address of the form clubname@irishastronomy.org.

Mail me for more info (webmaster@irishastronomy.org).

It is possible to set up redirects?

That way clubs that already have pages on their own servers can just get a URL here that points to their existing webpages.

eg, the IAS could have www.irishastronomy.org/IAS that would point to www.esatclear.ie/~ias

Just a thought

Banner free hosting with access to a MySQL database if you really need it, as well as Php and Perl.

We now also have th ability to give out subdomains so we can give out web appresses of te form www.yourclub.irishastronomy.org as well as www.irishastronomy.org/yourclub and www.irishastronomy.org/~yourclub

No idea whether they do or not (I'm just a member)! Just thought I'd ask in case some society wanted to do that.

Cheers,
